Five reasons why Rohit Sharma is a better captain than Virat Kohli

5) Good cricketing brain

Virat is a driven cricketer and under his captaincy, India has become one of the most dominant forces in the cricketing world. While captaining Men in Blue Kohli always has MS Dhoni alongside him and that helps him in crunch situations, but in the RCB dugout, he looks like a lost child in desperate times. He is a great leader when things are going perfectly for him, but he is not a tactician who can change the course of a game with his innovative thinking.

Kohli has worked with some of the best cricketing brains in the circuit like Dhoni, Gary Kirsten, and Anil Kumble but has not picked anything from them. On the other side, Rohit has grasped a lot of things from MSD, Adam Gilchrist and Ricky Ponting which has made him a terrific leader. It is necessary to have a good cricketing brain to win titles and that’s why Kohli has a winning percentage of 45 in IPL while Rohit has a win rate of 60%.

In the history of IPL smart leaders like Shane Warne, Gilchrist, Dhoni, and Rohit have won IPL titles, but Kohli hasn’t won a single one and that tells a story.

There is no doubt that Virat Kohli is the ultimate player in the current Indian set-up but as a leader, he can pick up few things from his teammate Rohit Sharma which will benefit the Men in Blue and the RCB franchise immensely.
