New ODI captain Kohli hails Dhoni

Virat Kohli has taken over from Mahendra Singh Dhoni as India’s limited-overs captain, becoming his country’s skipper in all three formats of the game, the Indian cricket board said on Friday. Dhoni has been named as wicket-keeper in the squads for three one-dayers and three Twenty20 Internationals against England, beginning on January 15. The 35-year-old Dhoni relinquished the limited-overs captaincy on Wednesday after nine trophy-laden years, which included two World Cups and a Champions Trophy.
