<p>After Anil Kumble confirmed that, his resignation as Team India coach came because of a rift between him and Indian skipper Virat Kohli, a few Indian cricket fans expressed their anger towards Kohli and blamed him for Anil Kumble's resignation.</p>
<p>The Kumble-Kohli fiasco seems to take a different turn now with some fans wanting former skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni to return as Team India captain.&nbsp;<br /><br /> After the sudden step down of Anil Kumble, fans took to social media demanding the return of MS Dhoni as captain. India&rsquo;s defeat in the ICC Champions Trophy to Pakistan was another reason for rage and demand for a change in captaincy.<br /><br />Anil Kumble's resignation flooded Twitter with messages for MS Dhoni replacing Virat Kohli as captain and here are some of those that followed:</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Sad to see Anil Kumble resign. That's why Dhoni would always remain the best captain ever. Kohli too much attitude n arrogance.</p>
