3 reasons why Rohit Sharma should replace Virat Kohli as India’s limited-overs captain

#Clarity of thought

Rohit has always been a clear thinker

It has happened on umpteen occasions in the last couple of years that Kohli has said something in a press conference and has done the exact opposite in a match.

He called Ajinkya Rahane strictly an opener and not a middle order option, and then used him at No. 4 in South Africa. He said Ambati Rayudu was a certain No. 4 for the World Cup and then overlooked him for the tournament altogether.

Kohli has been very unclear with his plans and his judgments of players.

Rohit, on the other hand, doesn’t often back off from his statements. He seems clear with what he wants to do with his teams, whether it’s his IPL team or even India whenever he has got the opportunity to be the captain in Kohli’s absence.

Rohit believes and has often even said in press conferences that MS Dhoni should bat up the order. And whenever he has captained India, he has actually implemented that. This clear thought process is what makes Rohit an incredibly good limited-overs leader, and probably better in comparison to Kohli.
