MUMBAI (Reuters) - Virat Kohli will step down as India's 20-over skipper after the Twenty20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates and Oman and the talisman could not have hoped for a better setting as he takes another stab at leading the side to a global title.

Kohli, also India's batting mainstay, has captained the team across formats for about five years but recently announced his decision to relinquish Twenty20 leadership to better manage his workload.
