I&#39;m confident he will get some runs and succeed,&quot; Ganguly said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>On Kohli&#39;s elevation as skipper, Ganguly, who is also the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) chief, said: &quot;He is the right successor (to Mahendra Singh Dhoni) in One-day Internationals and T20Is. He will be equally fantastic, there&#39;s no doubt about that.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The 28-year-old Kohli was officially named captain on Friday after Dhoni stepped down as the captain of the limited overs team after more than nine years at the helm.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Ranchi cricketer was, however, included in the team as a wicketkeeper-batsman.<\/p>\r\n",
