New Delhi. In the World Cup 2023, Team India will face Bangladesh (India vs Bangladesh) on Thursday in Pune. Under the leadership of Rohit Sharma, the Indian team has performed brilliantly in the tournament so far and is at the top of the points table by winning all its three matches easily. The most important thing is that during this period, Rohit has been seen leading the team from the front. By making clever changes in fielding and bowling, he has not only kept the opposition batsmen under pressure but his bat has also wreaked havoc on the opposition teams during this period. ‘Hitman’ has so far scored 217 runs in three matches of the tournament at an average of 72.33 and a blazing average of 141.83, which includes one century and one half-century. The most important thing is that the opposition bowlers were seen in panic due to the ‘threat’ of his bat. He has hit 11 sixes during this period.

The whole world is aware of Rohit’s batting ability, but his ability to appear stress-free and calm during captaincy has made Australia’s veteran player Ricky Ponting his fan. While talking to ICC on Tuesday, Ricky said, ‘He has a very calm mind. Whatever he does, he does it with a cool mind. You can also see it in the way he plays. He is an iconic kind of batsman. He is like this both inside and outside the field.

Comparing Rohit with Virat Kohli, another veteran batsman of Team India, the former Australia captain said, ‘A person like Virat works a little more from his heart. Virat probably listens to the fans and fulfills their expectations. He behaves more according to the captaincy. In such a situation, it will be a bit difficult for a player with his personality. In my opinion, Rohit is better suited for this (captaincy). He has a great personality and has been a key player of the Indian team for a long time. He has done a good job as the leader of the team.

There has been an upset in Pune, 2-time champion was defeated, is India the next victim?

Talking about World Cup 2023, in the first match against Australia, Rohit was out without opening his account but he compensated for it by scoring a stormy century against Afghanistan. Against the Afghan team, ‘Hitman’ played an inning of 131 runs in just 84 balls with the help of 16 fours and five sixes and proved to be important in Team India’s victory.

Even in the match against Pakistan, he was moving towards a century but unfortunately he was out on the ball of Shaheen Shah Afridi. Against the strong opponent, he played an inning of 86 runs in 63 balls with the help of six fours and six sixes. The most important thing was that they started attacking Pakistan bowlers from the very beginning due to which they did not get a chance to recover at all. Even against Bangladesh, fans will expect a big innings from Rohit Sharma.
