Superstars are everywhere in Indian cricket. Indian cricket has produced a number of stars throughout the years, including Kapil Dev, Sachin Tendulkar, and Sunil Gavaskar, all of whom have captured the hearts of cricket fans for many years. With players like MS Dhoni, Rohit Sharma, and Virat Kohli, the same is true for the current generation.
Since Dhoni retired from international cricket while Kohli is still playing, their respective IPL teams have caused division within the fan base. While Dhoni has been the captain of the Chennai Super Kings since 2008, Kohli has been a member of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru since then.
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu recently chose between Dhoni and Kohli. In a video that went viral, he choose Kohli over Dhoni.
“I always prefer Virat Kohli,” Naidu said.

In the second Test, India will play New Zealand.
Speaking of India, they are playing New Zealand in a three-game Test series right now. At Bengaluru’s M Chinnaswamy Stadium, the first Test match pitted the two teams against one another. But they were dismissed for a pitiful 46 runs in the first innings, giving India a terrible start.
Despite their successful second-inning comeback, the visitors were able to secure a comfortable eight-wicket victory. On October 24, the second Test between the two teams will take place in Pune.

India would be hoping for a stronger performance in the next match after losing the first Test, as they want to keep their number one standing in the WTC.
