Virat Kohli the skipper of the Indian Cricket team across all the 3 formats of the game responded to the observations made by their former coach and said that all the players and committee member’s love and respect him a lot

Kohli told the reporters that he respected the decision his Coach made to step down from the position of the coach and let them do the things right without any further disputes to be made on this occasion 

After the champion’s trophy came to an end, Jumbo decided not to head towards as a head coach for the team as he feels he has done enough for the team and squad and in return he has earned equal amount of respect and gratitude from the members as well

“It’s something that happened right after the tournament,” Kohli said about the incident.

“We have created a culture over the past 3-4 years that whatever happens in changing room, we have tried to maintain the sanctity of change room throughout. For us that’s paramount,” he further added.

“It’s his opinion which I respect. I have respect for him as a cricketer,” said Kohli.

“Though the BCCI attempted to resolved the misunderstandings between the Captain and me, it was apparent that the partnership was untenable, and I therefore believe it is best for me to move on,” Kumble wrote.

“Professionalism, discipline, commitment, honesty, complementary skills and diverse views are the key traits I bring to the table. These need to be valued for the partnership to be effective. I see the Coach’s role akin to ‘holding a mirror’ to drive self-improvement in the team’s interest.

“In light of these ‘reservations’. I believe it is best I hand over this responsibility to whomever the CAC and BCCI deem fit,” the former leg-spinner had added.
