Day 4 of the IND vs BAN Kanpur Test saw a different side of Rohit Sharma. And praising the India Cricket Team captain, Saba Karim went on to heap lavish praises on the Hitman. Saba Karim further claimed that the aggressive approach showed during India’s batting the other day, speaks volume about the captaincy of Rohit Sharma.
After Day 2 and Day 3 was washed away, play finally resumed on Day 4. And Rohit Sharma‘s side went full tilt to dispatch Bangladesh at the earliest. Eventually, the visitors were dismissed on 233 runs. And then came another change in India Cricket Team.
The batters went all hell lose as they switched gears from the very first delivery of the game. India’ went on to shatter 9 records yesterday as every batter had one objective – score as fast as possible. Rather than settling down in the initial overs and then playing the big shots, India opted to attack from the very first delivery.
Saba Karim lauds Rohit Sharma’s Captaincy
“This is the most pleasing and a very refreshing sight from Rohit Sharma’s captaincy. If you have seen in the past by earlier captains at times, They say ‘Let’s take the time, let us settle down, then we’ll take it forward. Let’s play the 1st 5-6 overs and then we’ll try and accelerate. But with Rohit Sharma at the helm, there’s nothing of that sort. There are no half measures whatsoever. From the first ball, you need to make your intent very clear,” said Saba Karim.
India unleashed fury. They reached 50 runs in 3 overs, 100 runs in 10.1 overs and 200 runs in just 24.2 overs thereby becoming the fastest ever team so to achieve this rare record. And a lot of credit for this transition to an ultra-aggressive game goes directly to captain Rohit Sharma.
“I think Rohit’s intentions have always been very clear. The decision-making has been very precise and I think it is good in a way that he’s got players or resources in his lineup who can follow the path that he treads, and he leads by example all the time, and I’ve seen that in the past and even now in this Test innings. When he wants to impose as a team that you need to win this encounter, this is the way you have to take the game forward. And I think that’s what Rohit and company have done so far,” said Karim on JioCinema.
