Rohit Sharma is easily the most “honest and clean hearted man” who has always let others grow, feels India’s T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav as he expressed confidence that his skipper will lead the country to ICC Champions Trophy triumph against New Zealand in Dubai on Sunday.
“He (Rohit) is very natural and instinctive. Whatever he does he keeps others in front and watches others grow. He is an easily approachable man. He always raises his hand and say I will do this for you. He is very natural on and off the field, clean-hearted, very honest,” Suryakumar said at the ‘India Today Conclave’.
Suryakumar believes that a calm dug-out means a happy dressing room and hence players who are fearless and expressive.
“The camaraderie and trust which is seen on the ground among the players, most importantly the dug out is relaxed. When you see the dug out is relaxed, that means something right is happening inside,” said the T20 superstar, who has had an amazing year as full-time skipper in shortest format,” Suryakumar said.
On the Champions Trophy, Suryakumar said that he won’t look beyond India win the prestigious trophy.
“India is winning the final tomorrow, it’s simple. India has been playing an amazing brand of cricket for the last two years and they should just be themselves,” Suryakumar said.
India is set to lock horns against New Zealand in the final of the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy on Sunday, March 9. Both teams have won the trophy once in their history and will be looking to get their hands on it once again.
