Rohit ended India's ICC title drought and led the team to victory in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Also, under his leadership, the team reached the final of the ICC World Cup 2023 without losing a single game in the league stage. as well as the semi-final with New Zealand.
Rohit, with his selfless approach, changed the dynamics of how the Indian national cricket team played the game. He led from the front and showed his team how to play. Although he has struggled in Tests of late, he is a complete different when it comes to ODIs.
