Rohit Sharma ended India’s run in the ICC title and led the team to victory in the 2024 ICC T20 World Cup.
Rohit ended India’s ICC title drought and led the team to victory in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Also, under his leadership the team reached the final of the ICC World Cup 2023 without losing a single match in the league stage. as well as the semi-final against New Zealand.
Rohit has changed the dynamic of the way the Indian cricket team plays with his selfless approach. He led from the front and showed his team how to play. Although he has struggled in Tests of late, he is a completely different batsman when it comes to ODIs.
Rohit is currently the second batsman in the ICC ODI rankings. The batsman would be hoping to answer any criticism in what will be a big white ball season. He would like to repeat what he did in the T20 World Cup last year and help the team win the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
