Former India higher Parthiv Patel selected the previous President of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) Sourav Ganguly as his captain over Mahendra Singh Dhoni and stated that there’ll all the time be a tender nook for his first skipper. Parthiv made his debut for India on the age of 17 in 2002. Parthiv performed 15 Test matches and 10 ODIs underneath Ganguly’s captaincy between 2002 and 2004. Ganguly was recognized for backing his gamers. “Today I would still choose Sourav Ganguly as my captain for sure. We’ve had a lot of successful captains Dhoni, Virat Kohli, everyone. But I would still choose Sourav. I think he had time for everyone though. Everyone else has been great captains as well. But I would still choose him,” Parthiv Patel stated in the course of the sixth Advancement In Endourology Conference At the Forum Convention Centre.

Parthiv gained the IPL with CSK in 2010 earlier than shifting on to the Mumbai Indians in 2015 and 2017, the place he gained two extra titles. Patel’s fast glove work and talent as an opener made him a beneficial member of each groups, contributing vastly to their profitable campaigns.

“Of course, Dhoni’s been great. There is no doubt about it. But when your first captain, you always have a soft corner for him. And that’s exactly what I have. I’ve played for three years for Chennai Super Kings. I can say it, but I made my Test debut or a one-day debut before Dhoni came in. My performance went down. That’s why Dhoni got picked. So I think it is a credit to him. I always said it, but there is only one opportunity you get because there are so many players around,” he added.

Talking in regards to the distinction between Delhi batters Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli, Parthiv stated each gamers are well mannered however the former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain’s model is barely extra aggressive.

“On the ground and off the ground. Virat is very polite. Gautam is also very polite. I mean, when you are playing cricket, when you want to win games for your country, there’s obviously some kind of aggression that comes in. But we all love Virat Kohli. The way he celebrates and stuff. He inspires a lot of them. I’ve played a lot of cricket with Gautam but I would say Virat’s rather slightly more aggressive,” Parthiv stated.
