Milestones and controversies which ruled Indian sports in 2015

Newly-appointed Test captain Virat Kohli enjoyed some amount of success as India toured Sri Lanka for a three-match series where the visitors came out victorious 2-1. It was followed by over a two-month-long South Africa tour of India which started on a disappointing note as the hosts lost both the Twenty20 International and one-day series.The longest format of the game was left to restore some pride and the four-match series saw India make the best use of home conditions, by producing rank turners to outplay the Proteas 3-0.The pitch in Nagpur was the centre of controversies as critics hit back at India for producing such unplayable conditions.
