IND vs ENG: Captain Cool 2.0 will be seen in the semi-finals..! Rohit Sharma will lead India to the finals by captaining like Dhoni
Team India is playing brilliantly under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, so far the team is undefeated with 6 wins in the tournament. Rohit Sharma (Photo Source: X/Twitter) The second semi-final match of T20 World Cup 2024 is going to be played between India and England in Guyana on 27th June from 8 pm. Whichever team wins this match will face South Africa in the final. Team India had to face defeat against Australia in the final of ODI World Cup 2023. The wound from which the fans and perhaps even the players have not been able to recover till now. With the defeat, the drought of World Cup title continues. In the ongoing tournament, Team India had secured a place in the semi-finals by defeating Australia by 24 runs in the last match of the Super-8 round, and also showed the Kangaroos the way out of the tournament. Along with this, the team has also avenged its defeat in the ODI World Cup final. Rohit Sharma played the biggest role in this victory against Australia. He played an innings of 92 runs in 41 balls. Rohit is also the highest run scorer for India in the tournament with 191 runs in 6 matches. Dhoni’s glimpse is visible in Rohit Sharma Team India is playing brilliantly under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, so far the team is undefeated with 6 wins in the tournament. Rohit Sharma is seen doing smart captaincy. Hitman is the captain of the bowlers. Bringing Akshar Patel in the death overs, getting Bumrah to bowl in the middle overs. All the strategies of Rohit have been amazing. We have seen a glimpse of MS Dhoni in Rohit’s captaincy. Let us tell you that after Dhoni, no Indian captain has been able to win the ICC trophy so far. Rohit has been seen changing the course of the match with his decisions in difficult situations. Now the team has to take revenge against England, from whom it had to face a humiliating defeat by 10 wickets in the semi-finals of the last T20 World Cup. Rohit will once again be seen proving his captaincy in the semi-finals against England. Before the semi-finals, former Indian cricket team player S. Sreesanth has given a statement about Rohit Sharma’s captaincy. Let us tell you what he has to say. Rohit has the same potential as Dhoni: Sreesanth Former Indian bowler S. Sreesanth said that Rohit Sharma always tells the players to be ready for challenges. Just like MS Dhoni used to do during his captaincy. Sreesanth said while talking on Star Sports, We always talk about Mahi bhai (MS Dhoni) and how we won the World Cup and his street smartness. I think Rohit has the same ability where he can surprise his teammates. He can suddenly call his teammates and say ‘be ready’. Rohit believes in what he feels inside his heart.
