"The bcci is playing with the captaincy like a toy" "I only found out in the media that the captain had been removed from the post".

Controversy has erupted since virat kohli was one day removed from the captaincy. "The bcci has not held any formal talks and does not know anything about this outcome," virat kohli told a news conference. 

Following this, cricket fans and critics have been criticizing the bcci and Ganguly. But this is not something that was conducted by the bcci today and yesterday, and their captaincy controversy has been going on for many years. The first victim was Kapil Dev.

The captain, who won India's first world cup, was dropped from the squad the following year. news reports at the time said that the reason was his modest game. But he was similarly removed from the captaincy without any prior notice. 

Sachin Tendulkar

The bcci has taken a similar approach to sachin tendulkar, who has a huge fan base not only in india but internationally in international cricket. sachin tendulkar was appointed captain in august 1996 and was removed from the captaincy in december 1997. 

But he did not comment at the time. Then again in 1999, he was given the captaincy. But he soon got rid of it himself and said the reason was that he wanted to focus on batting. 

But he wrote in his autobiography that he had no proper connection with the bcci and that it was only through the media that he came to know that I had been removed from the post of captain. 

Saurav Ganguly

Amidst the problems of captain search and leadership vacancy, the gambling affair turned the indian team upside down. At a time when the team was in disarray as key players were banned. 

After handing over the captaincy to Ganguly in 2000, he set out to build a successful indian team, unlike Sachin. The Ganguly-led team began to accumulate victories upon victory. 

The win over south africa at the 2003 world cup was seen as a huge success. He then led india to the final of the World Cup. That was when the disaster awaited the indian team. 

The Dark Period, often referred to by the indian team players, came and Craig Chappell was appointed coach. Although Ganguly initially liked it, gradually Craig Chappell began to change drastically. 

Apparently, the fight between the two was simmering like a huge volcanic eruption. As a result, Ganguly was sacked as captain in 2005. A few weeks later he was dropped from the team one day. He was also dropped from the Test squad in 2006. 

Cricket commentators at the time wrote that the problem was that the bcci did not communicate properly. 

Virat Kohli

After dhoni announced his retirement from Test cricket in 2014, the captaincy was handed over to Kohli. In 2017 he became the captain of all kinds of tournaments. 

He resigned as t20 captain last September, claiming that the workload was too high in that category. Then a few months later he was removed from the captaincy one day. 

Despite Kohli's desire to continue as ODI captain, the bcci has announced that rohit sharma will remain captain of the ODI team. 

Many criticisms are currently being levelled at the bcci, which has been following an anarchic course towards captains since 1984.
