Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj penned an emotional tribute for the outgoing captain, Virat Kohli. In a social media post, Siraj shared images with Kohli and called the former Indian captain his "super hero".
Virat Kohli dropped the reins of India's Test captaincy after losing the series against South Africa.
In his social media post, Mohammed Siraj wrote: "To my superhero, I cannot be thankful enough for the support and the encouragement that I got from you. You have always been my great brother. Thank you for trusting me and believing in me for all these years. For seeing the great at my worst. You will be always be my captain King Kohli 👑 "
Mohammed Siraj is also Kohli's teammate in Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). Siraj and Kohli share a good bond. It is also learned that Siraj was one of Kohli's top picks for bowling with the old ball and more often than not, Siraj proved his metel.
Last year, Virat had stepped down as team India's T20 skipper ahead of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup after which the Board of Control for Cricket in India had removed him as India's ODI captain as the senior team's selectors did not want more than one captain for white-ball format.
