Rohit was made the captain after the BCCI removed Virat Kohli as the ODI skipper following his war of words with the Board.
”Rohit has been an excellent captain (with Mumbai Indians), a good motivational leader. I’ve watched him captaining Mumbai in the IPL. He’s among the captains who have won like MS Dhoni, (Gautam) Gambhir…” ”All these guys can manage to get performances from their teammates. These captains normally get results and win trophies. I’m not worried about Indian cricket. It’s in good hand,” the 38-year-old added.
CSK won their fourth IPL title in 2021 beating Kolkata Knight Riders in the final.
‘‘You see guys like MS… He didn’t do much the entire season but when the team needed him to fire in the playoffs, he was out there in full flow,” Sammy said.
