Navjot Singh Sidhu on MI captaincy controversy : Former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu, known for his sharp opinions, returned as a Hindi commentator in the IPL and as soon as he came, he made statements in his familiar style regarding the alleged dispute between the two. Rohit Sharma and captain Hardik Pandya of Mumbai Indians. India's current Hardik Pandya has been made the captain in place of Mumbai Indians captain and former captain Rohit Sharma. This has caused a lot of resentment and anger among Rohit's fans, but personally I believe there should be no problem if a senior cricketer plays under a junior cricketer with a change in management approach. Even if Rohit Sharma plays under Hardik Pandya, Rohit Sharma will always be great in the cricket world as a player and captain. A cricketer being the captain does not make him greater than the other best players in the team. A player is remembered for his career and contribution.
Players are remembered for their talent and contribution
Navjot Singh Sidhu said that during our tenure it was seen that Kapildev, Vengsarkar, Gavaskar, Srikanth and Shastri were the five players who captained the Indian team despite being in the same team. Today those players are not remembered because they were captains but rather for their talent and contribution to cricket.
Thinguji remains Thinguji
Navjot Sidhu had then bluntly said that even if you keep something on the top of a mountain, it remains the same thing and even if you push a bright thing like the sun into a deep valley or a well, it still remains the sun. After this Navjot Sidhu said how great a player Rohit Sharma is and how many runs he has scored and how much captaincy he has captained in so many years, he is like the sun. No matter who he plays under, fans will consider him great.
Such a player does not need anyone's certificate.
Sidhu, in his unique conjecture, said that when iron is heated and burnt it becomes a double-edged sword whereas when gold is heated and burnt it enhances the beauty of a diamond's neck. After facing lakhs of difficulties, he becomes the captain of the team like Rohit Sharma and Dhoni. Such a player does not need anyone's certificate. Does Surya need anyone's certificate or degree? As Sisidhu said, its brightness is its measure.
