New Delhi: Indian skipper Virat Kohli expressing gratitude for the “Friendship and Belief” on MS Dhoni, he said “You will always be my Captain “on Sunday. He also said in the BCCI official twitter he got from the talismanic senior Kohli said Dhoni’s retirement is that rare moment in his life when he doesn’t have enough words to express his thoughts.

“Words fall short a lot of times in life and I think this is one of those moments. All I can say is that you will always be that guy who sat in the last seat of the bus,” Kohli said. Dhoni and Kohli shared a visibly comfortable equation even after the latter took over the leader’s mantle and both spoke highly of each other.

Kohli said “We have shared a great camaraderie, friendship, understanding because we have always played for the same roles, same goals, which was to make the team win”. “It’s been a pleasure playing under you, alongside you. You showed belief in me, which I would always be grateful for. “I have said it before, I will say it again, you will always be my captain,” he signed off.

“‘I salute you Lieutenant Colonel MS Dhoni,’ tributes pour in from #TeamIndia Head Coach @RaviShastriOfc. #ThankYouMSDhoni,” Shastri said in his tribute video tweeted by the BCCI. Team India head coach Ravi Shastri also posted a special video message for the wicket-keeper batsman, who also holds the honorary rank of a Lt. Colonel in the Territorial Army.
