Virat Kohli's aggressive brand of captaincy has always divided [img]http://www.authenticpittsburghpirates.com/images/products/mlb_jerseys_new/p... opinions and former Auatralia skipper Steve Waugh feels that the India skipper was a "little over the top" in the recent tour of South Africa.
India enjoyed decent success in the 58-day tour, during which the side lost the Test series 1-2 but clinched the ODI and Twenty20 series 5-1 and 2-1 respectively. Kohli's stellar performance with the bat was among the biggest positives to be drawn from the gruelling sojourn.
Waugh feels that Kohli's aggressive nature is a part of his development as a charismatic India captain."I have seen him in South Africa and I feel that he was little over the top. But that's a learning thing for a captain," Waugh told PTI.
Waugh said Kohli needs to strike a balance given that not all players in his team are as expressive as he is."As a captain, he (Kohli) is still developing and needs some time to pull in his excitement Carlos Hyde Youth Jersey factor and emotions but that's the way he plays," he said.
"I think he just needs to get a bit aware that everyone in the side can't play in that fashion. Someone like (Ajinkya) Rahane and (Cheteshwar) Pujara are very calm and quiet guys so he needs to just understand that some players are different," Waugh added.
"At times he probably needs to tone his aggression down and http://www.49... at times he needs to lift it, so he needs to work it out what's right."The Australian great, however, insisted that he has immense respect for Kohli the player.
"He (Kohli) is leading very well right now. He has that charisma and that X-factor and so he wants all the rest of the team to follow him. He wants the team to play positively all the time and win as quickly as he can," observed Waugh.
