Rohit Sharma has no reason to retire, says South African batting great AB de Villiers, who believes the India skipper could go down as one of the greatest ODI captains of all time.
Speculations were rife about Rohit’s retirement from ODIs after the Champions Trophy, but the 37-year-old put them to rest after leading India to an unprecedented third title.
“Compared to other captains, look at Rohitās win percentage ā itās almost 74%, which is substantially more than any other captain of the past,” de Villiers said in his YouTube channel.
Rohit smashed an 83-ball 76, playing a pivotal role in India’s tricky 252-run chase in the final against New Zealand in Dubai to win the player-of-the-match.
