BCCI President Roger Binny on Friday refused to compare the captaincy of current skipper Rohit Sharma with the likes of Kapil Dev and Mahendra Singh Dhoni, saying each one of them had a different way of leading the national team.’Rohit is an experienced player. He has played so many matches and been in so many situations. Everyone has a different approach. Dhoni is totally different, you can’t compare him, Kapil or Gavaskar. Each one has a different way of how they operate,” he said.Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the 90th annual day of the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association here, the former India cricketer said if the openers provided a strong start there was a better chance of the team winning matches.
”The powerplay is one of the important areas. I think the openers have to give us a strong start. If we get that good start, there’s a better chance of winning. Any team is comfortable chasing, they are not happy to bat first. ”Most teams prefer to chase down the total because the wickets are such, it keeps getting slower and slower as the game goes on,” Binny said in response to a query on what the batters’ approach should be during the powerplay.With regard to a number of Indian players like ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah suffering injuries in recent times, he said, ”We just want to find out why they are getting injured. What the reason is. We can’t stop it. We need to find out whether it’s overload, if players are not fit, and if their exercise needs to be changed. ”A lot of players are getting injured during training. It’s not a good thing,” he added.
