Former India captain Sourav Ganguly is bowled over by Virat Kohli's exuberance and passion to cricket.
"I love his body language. I am a big fan of Kohli," Ganguly told reporters in a recent event in Kolkata.
"I love him off the field as well. It's about passion. I have got lot of faith in Virat Kohli. Whatever I've seen of him from the ground or TV, it gives me a lot of confidence."
In his maiden Test as captain, Kohli struck two centuries against Australia in the first match at Adelaide as India were on the verge of victory before losing by 48 runs.
After Dhoni's sudden retirement, Kohli returned as skipper in the fourth and last Test in Sydney and scored another century.
All praise for Kohli's "hunger" to win, the Indian great hoped the Delhi batsman build a team capable of winning in all conditions.
"He's hungry, he wants to win. He got a Test hundred again as a captain. He's scored five hundreds from the five Tests he captained so far. This is a fabulous sign," Ganguly said.
