Since becoming the full-time captain of the Indian team in all three formats, the team under the leadership of Rohit Sharma has performed brilliantly. Won in all formats of the game at home and against three different teams. While former Australian cricketer Brad Hogg wants to see how the new captain reacts to pressure situations, he has cautioned him about all upcoming big series and tournaments.
After the T20 World Cup 2021 in the UAE, Virat Kohli decided to step down from the T20 captaincy, after which Rohit Sharma was chosen as the new captain. A few months later, the captaincy of the ODI team was also handed over to Rohit. Rohit was made India’s new Test captain in February after Kohli stepped down after the South Africa tour in January. However, Hogg has issued a big warning to Rohit regarding the visiting Australian team.
Hogg said, “India have got four Test matches against Australia, which is going to be tough for Rohit Sharma. I want to see him under pressure. Will he keep the same calm body language or will we see a little anger?” With the T20 series against South Africa at home, the tour of England and the T20 World Cup ahead. So, there are pressure tournaments ahead for Rohit.
Rohit, who has recently led the Indian team to victories in all three formats as captain, will soon be seen playing in the upcoming 2022 season of the Indian Premier League, where he will lead five-time winners Mumbai Indians.
