Dale Steyn’s Insight Into Why Virat Kohli Resigned As India’s Test Captain
According to Dale Steyn, Virat Kohli’s decision was likely influenced by the demands of being away from family for an extended period of time inside a bio-bubble.
Former South African pacer Dale Steyn had a different take on Virat Kohli’s decision to step down as India’s Test captain. While many experts and former cricketers were “surprised” by Kohli’s unexpected announcement a day after India’s 1-2 defeat to South Africa in the three-match Test series, Steyn believes it may just help Kohli become a better player.
“Perhaps these bio-bubbles and all played a role in it.” For someone like Virat, it all comes down to family. “Right now, he has a young family,” Steyn told Star Sports on Wednesday.

“Captaincy is a selfless endeavor.” We all have to focus on ourselves in order to provide the best for the team. But once you have other people in your family, such as your wife or children. The other things don’t matter as much. Now that he has relinquished the captaincy, Virat will concentrate on his family and his batting. Perhaps you’ll even see a better Virat Kohli. “He hasn’t scored an international century in a long time,” Steyn added.
