While Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni have ICC trophies to their names, Virat Kohli has led India to remarkable success in Test cricket, elevating the team from a number 7 ranking to the top spot in the ICC rankings.
Under Kohli's captaincy, India secured historic victories on foreign soil. The leadership styles and achievements of these three captains continue to be a topic of debate among experts and fans alike.
"2-3 things are nice about Rohit's captaincy. He always keep the environment of the team light. He makes an effort to keep it light. And he stays very balanced and tactically he is strong. Both Dhoni and Virat were also tactically strong but Rohit works more on the tactics," said Ravichandran Ashwin in an interview with Vimal Kumar.
Ashwin added that before a major series, Rohit Sharma collaborates closely with the analysis team, ensuring thorough preparation. He also mentioned that the senior opener is known for offering unwavering support to his players.
"If there is any big match or series coming up, Rohit sits with the analytics team and coach and prepares for it, like what's the weakness of a particular batsman, what's the plan of a bowler. That's his strength but he always keeps the environment of the team light and backs the players. If he selects a player in the XI, he backs them 100%. I have played most of my career with these three captains," he added.
