“And he said, you know, people think I’m a great test cricket and enjoyed a test launcher – which I did. But the fact is that I was to get the captain was the best thing that happened with my launching,” he added.Karthik then compared Kohli’s remark with what Indian Captain Shubman Gill said about the launch and captain.“Why I say it’s the same line that SHUBMAN GILL also used,” Karthik said.“He said I wasn’t watering differently. But now, after I have a captain, almost when I launch, I think that’s what my team requires – rather than I want to do something individually as a dough – which I thought, the gentlemen.“Now it is something that the world of cricket has to notice, because here is a man who has a appetite that has a skill that has a technique.“But now he also has a thinking that says: I am a captain. I will lead from the front, lead from the front leg. And we saw it in the last test match.“I’m sure there will be many more test matches for us to observe it. But it looks like he’s on the right track.”A series of five matches tests is locked at 1-1, while the third match is scheduled for Lord’s, starting with Thursday.
