The newly appointed Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) captain Dinesh Karthik said that he would like to emulate the current India skipper Virat Kohli and lead from the front. "Virat is a captain who leads by his action. He is somebody who shows with his performance and that is something that I can try and emulate. Lead by example rather than speaking," Karthik said. Wicketkeeper-batsman Robin Uthappa was named vice-captain of the side.
