Rohit Sharma has been the only skipper in the Indian Premier league who has led the team Mumbai Indians to five victories in the championship. He has been an asset to his team as a batsman and as a captain. He has taken tough calls and trusted his players and his judgment when the time comes.
Today when team Mumbai Indians was playing against Punjab Kings, the batting lineup was against the wall as wickets fell and Rohit Sharma held the ground and scored 63 runs for his team. The team somehow managed to set a target of 132 runs and though the team lost due to a poor batting line up Rohit Sharma’s wisdom as a captain proved his skill.
It so happened that when Jayant Yadav’s ball got smashed into a six. He quickly recognized that the ball was spinning too much and immediately replaced Jayant with Krunal Pandya in the next over after which the next 7 balls were dot balls. These instances attest to his skill not just as a batsman but also as a captain.
