5 reasons why India can win 2023 ODI World Cup under Rohit Sharma

The most important international tournament is the ICC Cricket World Cup which is held to crown the international One Day champions. The event is organised once every four years and the last World Cup ended in 2019 in England, with the hosts ending up as the winners.

The next World Cup in 2023 will be an incredible opportunity for the Indians as they will host the tournament after 12 years. Virat Kohli led the team in 2019 and India lost in the semi-finals match against New Zealand. Kohli gave up his T20 captaincy right after the T20 World Cup.

But the BCCI has recently announced Rohit Sharma as the new ODI captain as well. This change now will certainly give Rohit ample space and time to build the perfect team ahead of the World Cup in 2023.

Here are 5 reasons why India can win the 2023 ODI World Cup under Rohit Sharma:

1. Sound cricket mind and great technical acumen:

Rohit Sharma isn’t the new face of captaincy in India. He has been captaining the Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League for quite a few years and has led the Indian limited-overs team in the absence of Virat Kohli. Unlike Kohli’s aggressive brand of cricket, we could witness a different style of captaincy under Rohit.

Rohit is known for his calmness and composure. He always comforts the players around him and backs them throughout. Many Indian talents such as Hardik Pandya, Ishan Kishan, Jasprit Bumrah, and Rahul Chahar have been groomed by Rohit and their rough phase has also been well handled by him.

The veteran is always praised for his man-management skills and for his shrewd technical knowledge. Rohit’s records as a captain prove his ability on the field. His assessment of the situations and bringing in crucial changes are his highlights.
