Kapil Dev's strange statement in praise of Rohit, fans were surprised

Kapil Dev, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli: Former Indian captain Kapil Dev has praised Rohit Sharma's calm and composed captaincy. The 1983 World Cup-winning captain pointed out a clear difference between Rohit and Virat Kohli's captaincy styles. Rohit is currently leading the Indian team in the T20 World Cup 2024 with his captaincy and batting. Under his captaincy, India has reached the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup for the second consecutive time. Team India will take on England in the second semi-final at the Providence Stadium in Guyana.

Many experts have praised Rohit's captaincy in the tournament. Rohit is India's highest run scorer in the tournament with 191 runs in 6 matches at an average of 38.20 and a strike rate of 159.17. He also played a match-winning innings of 92 runs against Australia, which helped India reach the semi-finals of the tournament. Kapil Dev said that Rohit has united the team as a captain and has never shown aggression on the field.

Rohit knows his limits: Kapil Dev

“He (Rohit) doesn't play like Virat, doesn't jump like him,” Kapil Dev said in an ABP News program. “He knows his limits and there is no better player than him within those limits.” Kapil Dev elaborated on Rohit's influence. He explained how the 37-year-old never puts his personal interests above the interests of the team.

'Rohit keeps the whole team happy'

Kapil Dev said, “Many big players come, worry about their careers and captain with that attitude. But Rohit keeps the whole team happy. India will play England in the T20 World Cup 2022 semi-final. They beat Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Australia in the Super-8.
