IPL 2023: Ranking Top Captains on Performance
MS Dhoni was once again fantastic with his captaincy style in IPL 2023.
4. Rohit Sharma (MI)- {8/10}
Rohit Gurunath Sharma and Mumbai Indians have been synonymous since the day the Mumbaikar joined them. Him being the joint most successful IPL captain besides MS Dhoni, he knows how to be a champion side. Last season, MI finished at the bottom of the table, probably their lowest point in recent times. From there, they reached the playoffs and played till the second qualifier, where they were beaten by Gujarat Titans.
MI's talent scouting and backing of the players have been the biggest reason behind their dominance. And Rohit being everyone's favorite, giving players full support to express and win matches for them. The likes of Tilak Varma, and Nehal Wadhera formed a core middle order which benefitted the Mumbai franchise and the resurgence of Piyush Chawla came as a surprise package.
MI missed Jasprit Bumrah's service but Akash Madhwal made them feel assured at a point. Rohit might not have had a great season, but his captaincy was brilliant, spot-on. It never showed like they were going through a transition period as most of the things went smoothly.
