Dhoni&#39;s record of 27 wins in the longest format of the game. In the 48 Tests under Kohli, India have won 28, lost 10 and drawn another 10.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Dhoni had a win percentage of 45 as captain after winning 27, losing 18 and drawing 15 in 60 matches he led the team. On the other hand, Kohli&#39;s win percentage is 58.33 -- the best among all other Indian captains in the format.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Third on the list of most successful Indian captains is Sourav Ganguly who led the team to 21 wins, 13 losses and 15 draws in 49 matches.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Captaincy is just a &#39;c&#39; in front of your name, honestly. It&#39;s the collective effort that matters,&quot; Kohli said at the post-match presentation. &quot;It&#39;s a by-product of this quality team that we have here, to be honest. If we didn&#39;t have the bowlers that we have, I don&#39;t think the results would have been possible.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Yes, you can score as many runs as you want, but if you look at these guys running in and putting their heart in...I mean (Mohammed) Shami&#39;s spell today, (Jasprit) Bumrah after having a small niggle, Ishant (Sharma) bowling his heart out, (Ravindra) Jadeja bowling a long spell...&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I don&#39;t think without these bowlers it would have been possible. So I think all the credit has to go to the whole team.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>India&#39;s win in the second Test came in the second session on the fourth day after the West Indies were bundled out for 210 in their chase of 468.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>With the clean sweep in the two-match series, the top-ranked team now have 120 points and are currently numero uno in the World Test Championship score board.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Kohli now also holds the record for being the most successful India Test skipper in away matches. The 30-year-old now has 13 away wins as captain in 27 matches, while Ganguly had 11 wins in 28 games.<\/p>\r\n",
