Rohit Sharma joined the team in 2013 and became the captain. In the very first year, he put the trophy in the bag of Mumbai.
Rohit Sharma is also a hit in batting as well as captaincy.
Rohit Sharma plays unanimous rule in IPL. Why not, even within eight years, he made the Mumbai Indians five times the champion of the IPL. This achievement is not a laughing matter. In five years from 2008 to 2012, Mumbai did not have a single IPL trophy but now there are five and they are the most successful team of this tournament. Rohit Sharma joined the team in 2013 and became the captain. In the very first year, he put the trophy in the bag of Mumbai. Then every other year the title started coming. But by winning continuously in 2019 and 2020, he equaled Mahendra Singh Dhoni to win the title twice in a row. Now in IPL 2021, Rohit is ready to put a hat-trick of becoming the champion. In such a situation, it is important to know what is the secret of Rohit’s captaincy?
Rohit, who is considered to be one of the best batsmen in the world, is also no less in the captaincy. Under his leadership, Mumbai Indians have won the IPL as well as the Champions League T20 title. They have brought the trophy whenever they have taken the team to the finals. Even Rohit, as a captain, looks as natural as he does in banting. Absolutely effortless. Do your work quietly without talking too much. Apart from Mumbai, Rohit has left an impression whenever he has taken charge of Team India. He has won tournaments like India Asia Cup and Nidahas Trophy. While India’s regular captain Virat Kohli has not yet been able to win the team in multi-team tournaments (tournaments in which more than two teams participate). Many things make Rohit an amazing captain.
Calm but sharp mind
Rohit Sharma is very much like Mahendra Singh Dhoni in captaincy. Remain calm but do not back down from showing resentment. However, they do not break the morale of fellow players. They keep a rapid strategy while remaining calm. On tense, decisive occasions, his mind moves fast and gets his work done out of peace. With a sharp mind, they realize the opponent’s mistake and achieve success. See the IPL 2019 final as an example. In this match, Chennai needed two runs off the last ball. Shardul Thakur was present for the batting. He knew how to play Shardul. In such a situation, he asked Lasith Malinga to put a slow yorker because Shardul wanted to take a big shot. This strategy worked and Mumbai won the title by one run. Something similar happened in the 2017 final as well.
Trust players
Rohit has full faith in his players. If a player is going through a bad phase, then they give him full time. Instead of putting pressure on him to perform, he is seen calming and explaining it. Under his captaincy, the mood of the entire Mumbai Indians team has become similar. When a player makes a mistake on important occasions, Rohit does not fret over him but instead normalizes the atmosphere by saying ‘No one is nobody’. Rohit has full faith in players like Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Pandya Bhai. In return, these players prove themselves with their game.
Players present according to the need of the team
The role of every player of Mumbai Indians under Rohit’s captaincy is certain. Who will open, who will play in the middle overs and who will finish. They have players according to each role. Quinton de Kock and Rohit start the innings. Ishaan, Surya handle the middle overs, then Pandya Bhai and Kairan Pollard are tasked to finish the match. In the same way, he also has complete variety in bowling. Rahul Thar-Krunal Pandya – Hardik Pandya will also stop runs and take wickets in the middle overs, when Trent Bolt will take wickets in the powerplay overs. Jasprit Bumrah is responsible for the rest of the death overs. In such a situation, being a player according to every role opens the way for Mumbai Indians to become champions.
Great support staff
Mumbai Indians also have one to one support staff. While Mahela Jayawardene is the coach of the team, Shane Bond has the responsibility of improving bowling. Robin Singh is the fielding coach, while Zaheer Khan is the team director. John Wright, Kiran More, TA Shekhar, Praveen Amre and Abhay Kuruvilla discover new talent for the team.
