Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni (Image Credit- Twitter MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma are known as great captains in the history of Indian cricket. Both have the tag of World Cup winning captain in front of their names. Harbhajan Singh has the experience of playing under the leadership of both MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma. Meanwhile, according to former Indian team spinner Harbhajan Singh, there is a big difference in the captaincy styles of the two. Recently, he took part in Taruwar Kohli’s podcast and explained the difference between the two captains. What did Harbhajan Singh say about MS Dhoni’s captaincy? Harbhajan Singh said, “Dhoni and Rohit are both different types of leaders. MS Dhoni will never go to a fielder and ask, ‘Which fielding do you want?’ He gives you a chance to learn from mistakes.” Bhajji explained by telling an anecdote “I remember one match, in which I was fielding at short fine leg and MS Dhoni was keeping. Shardul Thakur was bowling and on the first ball Kane Williamson hit him for a boundary. The next ball was also of the same length and Williamson played the same shot. I went to MS and asked him to tell Shardul to bowl a different length. MS told me, ‘Paaji if I tell him right now, he will never learn. Let him learn on his own.’ His thinking was that when Shardul gets hit for boundaries, he will learn quickly. This was the MS Dhoni way.” What did Harbhajan Singh say about Rohit Sharma’s captaincy? Talking about Rohit Sharma, Harbhajan Singh said- “Rohit is very different. He will talk to every player. He is the kind of player who will put his hand on your shoulder and tell you what he wants from you. He will make you believe that yes, you can do it.” Captaincy in Test cricket has made Rohit Sharma an even better captain: Harbhajan Singh He said, “The biggest change in Rohit came when he started captaining in Test cricket. As a Test captain, you learn a lot. There are many moments in T20 that you ignore, but you cannot do that in Test cricket. In Test cricket, the captain runs everything. His strategy and its implementation are very important to win Test matches, this is what makes you a great leader. Steve Waugh’s name immediately comes to my mind, because he was very good at captaincy. If you are performing well as a captain in Test cricket, then it becomes easier to captain in T20 and ODIs.”

The Indian team has to play its first match against Ireland on June 5 and after that they have to play an important match against Pakistan on June 9. Yuvraj Singh said about this match that, ‘This is a game of emotions. If we win then they will go crazy. If we lose then our fans will get angry. But the thing is that if we win then their fans will also go crazy with us and if we lose then their madness will be worth watching and this is the difference. Be it India or Pakistan or any other match, I have full faith that the players are giving their 100 percent. If we perform well against Pakistan on June 9, we will win the match. If this does not happen then Pakistan can win this match. But the best thing is that in the last few times our record has been very good against Pakistan and we would like to continue this form in the future as well. This match will be really exciting. This is the first time I will be watching India vs Pakistan on the ground: Yuvraj Singh Yuvraj Singh further said, ‘I am very nervous about the match between India and Pakistan. I have seen the match between these two teams on TV but for the first time I will watch the India vs Pakistan match sitting on the ground. USA defeated Canada by 7 wickets. USA’s performance was very good in this match. I pray that the Indian team also performs well this season and wins the tournament trophy. In the warm-up match against Bangladesh, all the players of the team batted and bowled very well.

“Having captaincy or not will not make any difference” – Irfan Pathan said about Rohit’s batting.
Team India’s former star all-rounder Irfan Pathan believes that Rohit Sharma will adopt the same aggressive attitude in IPL 2024 which he had adopted in the 2023 ODI World Cup. Let us tell you that Mumbai Indians (MI) bought Hardik Pandya from Gujarat Titans (GT) before the IPL 2024 auction. Later, he appointed Baroda all-rounder (Hardik Pandya) as his captain in place of Rohit for the upcoming edition of this cash rich league. Under the captaincy of Rohit, Mumbai Indians have won five IPL titles. During a discussion on Star Sports, Pathan was asked whether Rohit will play more freely in IPL 2024 since he is no longer the captain. Responding to this, Irfan said, “Weren’t there captaincy restrictions on him in the 50-over World Cup? There too he was the captain and played with an amazing strike rate. I think it will not make any difference whether there is captaincy or not. He has changed his outlook for some time now, it will make a difference in a short time. I think he will continue that template.” The former Indian all-rounder said that Rohit’s positive batting approach has benefited him a lot in recent times. Irfan said that, “It took him about a year and a half to achieve that template. Earlier, Rohit Sharma used to take his time for the first two or three overs and then score runs quickly. In the last two years, he took the responsibility and said that he will score fast runs from the first over and he has started getting the results now.”
