Bangalore: Former Australia captain Ian Chappell does not find Mahendra Singh Dhoni good enough to be India's Test captain, saying he was past his prime as far as leading the side and it was right time to hand the reins of the team to Virat Kohli.

"I think it time for Dhoni to go and may be it is right time for Kohli to come in as captain," Chappell told PTI in an exclusive interview here. "Certainly, he (Dhoni) is not a Test captain. I think he is a good captain in shorter-version of the game. I don't think there would be a problem to give it Kohli now, though," he said. Chappell said India need a fresh brain to lead the side, but Indian selectors are not ruthless to take hard decisions.
