Mahendra Singh Dhoni is considered one of the most successful captains in Indian cricket. It was said about him that whatever Dhoni touches turns into gold. He led the Indian team to the top of Tests under his captaincy. He is the only captain to win T20 World Cup, Champions Trophy and ODI World Cup. Now India’s current captain Rohit Sharma has received praise like Dhoni. Former cricketer Mohammad Kaif has said something in praise of Rohit on social media that is being discussed.
Former batsman Mohammad Kaif on Sunday (February 27) heaped praise on Rohit Sharma’s captaincy, saying everything the right-handed batsman is touching is turning into gold. Kaif lauded Rohit’s move to send Shreyas Iyer to number three spot in the ongoing T20I series against Sri Lanka in the absence of Virat Kohli.
Kaif tweeted, “Be careful shaking hands with Rohit Sharma these days. Everything he touches turns into gold. Shreyas at No. 3, Players rotation, bowling change. Every move is a masterstroke,” Kaif tweeted. India has won 11 consecutive matches in the shortest format. He is just one win away from equaling the world record.
Rohit Sharma was made India’s T20 and then ODI captain last year. After that he has also been appointed as the Test captain this year. Rohit achieved impressive victories in T20 against New Zealand, T20 against West Indies and ODI series. Team India did not lose a single match during this period. Now the Indian team has taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match T20I series against Sri Lanka. Now it is to be seen whether Rohit is able to win the World Cup under his captaincy on Dhoni’s side.
