"What you see from the outside is very different from how things happen within a person. He's always calm and composed, there's so much to learn from him. He was my captain and he will always be my captain. Our understanding has always been brilliant. I am always up for listening to his advice," says Kohli.

Jasprit Bumrah adds, "When I came to the team in 2016, he was the captain. He's a calming influence on the team and he's always there to help."

Also, Stokes states, "One of the greats of the game, phenomenal wicket-keeper. I don't think anyone will be as good as him."
