5 Indian Cricketers Who Back Rohit Sharma As The Captain

ChhabraBy Chhabra08/07/2020Updated:08/02/2023No Comments2 Mins Read

The captain of the Indian cricket team is one of the most famous personalities of the country because it is one position where every Indian cricket fanatic wants to sit once in his lifetime. The captains work hard their entire life just to attain that position and it is not everyone’s cup of tea since it requires extreme amount of hard work and dedication.

With captaincy comes more responsibility, because the individual has to not only think about his form but he needs to care about the team’s performance, bowling changes, playing XI combination and even field setting. Currently, Virat Kohli is India’s all-format captain. However, a few members of the cricket universe feel that Rohit Sharma should take over the reins of the team.

The reason behind it is that Sharma has helped Mumbai Indians win four IPL championships in last seven years. Here are the five cricketers who back Rohit Sharma ‘The Captain’.
