Kingston (Jamaica), Sep 3: Virat Kohli, who has become India's most successful captain in Test cricket, believes the feat he has achieved is a by-product of the quality of the team and the bowlers he has.

On Monday, India registered a thumping 257-run victory against the West Indies in the second Test at the Sabina Park, thereby taking Kohli ahead of former skipper M.S. Dhoni'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.
