Former batsman Amol Muzumdar has claimed that Rohit Sharma has gracefully overcome the disappointment of missing out on the 2011 World Cup and turned his career around. So far in his ongoing ODI World Cup, the 36-year-old has been outstanding with both his batting and leadership, leading his team to three of his three wins on home soil. I’m guiding you.
“In my opinion, what really upset him was when he wasn’t selected for the 2011 World Cup, which the team happened to play in and win. After that, he was just good . Then when he took over the captaincy (in the IPL), more responsibility fell on his shoulders and he really grew.”
Rohit Sharma was widely believed to play in the 2011 World Cup in India, but the team management and selectors took a different decision and left him out of the 15-man squad.
Additionally, the Indian captain’s career received a boost when he was promoted as an opener in the 2013 Champions Trophy and from there established himself as one of the game’s all-time greats.
After Virat Kohli stepped down as India’s captain after the 2021 T20 World Cup, Rohit Sharma breathed fresh air into Indian cricket by captaining him in all three formats of the game. The Indian captain got the chance to become the third Indian captain to win an ODI World Cup after India legend Kapil Dev and he MS Dhoni.
The Indian captain’s form will be very important for the Indian team’s success in the 2023 ODI World Cup. For the best, the team must be the first batter of the team participating in the tournament.
