Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma’s leadership style has earned him immense admiration from his teammates. His jovial nature and camaraderie with the younger players are often captured in viral videos on social media.
Following India’s emphatic 4-1 Test series victory over England in Dharamsala, Rohit took some of the team’s rising stars out for a casual outing. He shared a picture of the gathering on Instagram, featuring Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel, Shubman Gill, and Yashasvi Jaiswal.
Rohit’s witty caption, “Garden mein ghoomne wale bande,” drew laughter from former India cricketer Yuvraj Singh and current star Suryakumar Yadav. Yuvraj reacted with a laughing emoji, while Suryakumar quipped, “Gill and Jaiswal definitely.”
Beyond the lighthearted moments, Rohit also addressed his future in cricket. He stated that he would retire the moment he felt he could no longer contribute to the team. “One day, when I wake up and feel, I am not good enough then I will retire straightaway,” Rohit said.
He praised the team’s performance against England, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and the resilience of the young players. “When you win a Test like this, everything has to fall in place. At some stage people are gonna (go) and people are gonna come and we know that,” Rohit said.
“These (young) guys are maybe short of experience, they have played a lot of cricket and I can stand here and see that these guys responded pretty well under pressure. The credit goes to the entire team and it was pleasing to see.”
Rohit will now shift his focus to the upcoming IPL 2024 season with the Mumbai Indians. His leadership and experience will be crucial as the team aims to regain its past glory.
