Kris Srikkanth and Rohit Sharma (Image Credit- Twitter X) This is the third time under Rohit Sharma’s captaincy that the Indian cricket team has reached the finals of ICC tournaments. Rohit took over the reins of the team after Virat Kohli, and after that not only he but the team also started playing aggressive cricket. On the other hand, ahead of India’s final match with South Africa in the ongoing T20 World Cup, former Indian player and 1983 World Cup champion Krishnamachari Srikkanth has been seen comparing Rohit Sharma with former captain and legendary all-rounder Kapil Dev, under whose captaincy India won the World Cup for the first time. Srikanth compared Rohit to Kapil Let us tell you that in a discussion with Star Sports before India’s match against South Africa, Srikkanth said – I do not like to compare cricket eras and captains, but I have brought for you a similarity between the 1983 World Cup and this World Cup. In this World Cup, see who is leading the team as a leader. As a leader, Rohit Sharma said, I will lead, I will play risky shots. He has played some great shots and great innings so far. Kapil did something similar at that time. Srikkanth further said- As a team, you need every player. Be it Rishabh Pant, Suryakumar or even Akshar Patel’s 10-12 runs. The best thing is that he (Rohit) is using his bowlers properly. He captained brilliantly against England, and brought in Axar Patel in the fourth over, and he took the big wicket of Jos Buttler. This is the same thing that Kapil Dev did. Everyone is contributing to the success of the team.
“The dead will be cursed…” When Shaheen Afridi compared Mohammad Rizwan with this great cricketer, fans got angry.
When Shaheen Afridi called Mohammad Rizwan the badman of T20 cricket, the fans said this. Shaheen Afridi.

Keeping in mind the upcoming T20 World Cup, this series is very important for Pakistan from the preparation point of view. Meanwhile, in the second match of the series, Pakistan’s Mohammad Rizwan has completed 3000 runs in T20I cricket. Rizwan has become the second batsman of Pakistan to achieve this feat after captain Babar Azam. On the milestone of Mohammad Rizwan, former Pakistan captain and fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi praised Rizwan through a social media post and compared the batsman with the great cricketer Don Bradman. Shaheen Afridi wrote this in his tweet about Mohammad Rizwan Shaheen wrote on Twitter that Rizwan is the Bradman of T20 cricket and congratulated him for this achievement. But interestingly, Rizwan has the lowest strike-rate in the list of batsmen who have achieved the feat of 3000 T20I runs, which is 127.42. This is slightly worse than his compatriot Babar Azam, whose strike rate (129) is the second worst in this list. Shaheen Afridi wrote, “Congratulations to the Bradman of T20 cricket and Superman of Pakistan Mohammad Rizwan for scoring 3,000 T20 runs! Your influence has changed the game and silenced the critics. Keep going, champion! You are an inspiration to many people.” Fans saw his tweet on social media and did not spare him for this tweet. He trolled Shaheen for this absurd statement and said that perhaps he would never compare any Pakistani with Don Bradman in future.
