India captain Rohit Sharma on Thursday lauded former skipper and batting mainstay Virat Kohli ahead of his landmark 100th Test, saying he deserves all the credit for putting the team in a good position in the format.
Rohit will start his Test captaincy journey when he steps out to lead India against Sri Lanka in the opening game here starting Friday.
”As a Test team, we stand in a very good position. The whole credit goes to Virat for where we stand in this format. What he has done with the Test team over the years was brilliant to see,” Rohit said in the pre-match press conference, his first as Test skipper.
”I have to just take it from where he has left. I just have to do the right thing with right players,” he added.
