Indian limited overs vice-captain Rohit Sharma recently opened up to a Youtube channel why MS Dhoni is the best captain of the Indian team.
“Whole India knows MS Dhoni is the one who has been like that. It has helped him to make such good decisions on the field, and now you see he is the most successful Indian captain, having all three ICC Trophies with him and many IPL titles as well. He is the best captain India has seen, and there is a reason behind it, and that reason is him being calm and composed under pressure situation,” Rohit was quoted as saying to Kamiya Jani on the Curly Tales Youtube channel.
Several stars from the current team, including the likes of Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja and Rohit himself, thrived under Dhoni’s leadership.
“I have seen him handle a lot of younger bowlers when they get under pressure, he goes around and puts his arm around their neck and talks to them what he needs to do and what not. You know when a younger player is being treated like that by the senior member of a team, you obviously feel confident and want to deliver for the team,” added Rohit.
Meanwhile, the Indian opener is out of the New Zealand series after picking up a calf injury during the final T20I.
