Shubman Gill wants Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli for the ICC World Cup 2027
The new ODI captain of the Indian team, Shubman Gill, is very clear that he wants Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli for the ICC World Cup 2025. When Virat Kohli was made the captain, there was Mahendra Singh Dhoni, surely the best Indian captain, to guide him. Now, Shubman Gill would be glad that he has two great leaders, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, in his initial days. He needs to learn a lot from them, mainly how to manage the team in difficult situations.
The experience that both of them have and the matches that they have won for India, there are very few players who have won so many matches for India. And the players who have such skills and qualities, and the players who have such skills and qualities with this experience are very few. There are very few players in the world who have so much skill, quality and experience. So, in that sense, yes
If both the players, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, play the ICC World Cup 2027, they will bring a lot of experience. Virat Kohli will play his sixth World Cup, whereas Rohit will play his fifth. When we look at the last two World Cups. Both players have scored a lot of runs and have been very decisive. Rohit Sharma scored five centuries in the 2019 World Cup. When India is in crisis, it is always Virat Kohli to the rescue.
When we look at the players India has, there are many players to play in Virat and Rohit’s roles. We all know Rohit Sharma dreams of winning the World Cup; surely the management should have this in mind. Surely, form will never be a problem for both players, but time will speak for itself.
