Former Team India’s North Zone selector Sarandeep Singh has said that the newly-appointed India white-ball captain Rohit Sharma has previously led India in Virat Kohli’s absence and has done a good job.

The BCCI senior selection committee recently appointed Rohit Sharma as the new One Day Internationals (ODI) captain and Test vice-captain of the India National Cricket Team. Also, Rohit replaced Kohli as T20 Internationals captain of the team after he decided to step down from the role following the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021.

Former Team India’s North Zone selector Sarandeep has said that BCCI’s decision to appoint Rohit as white-ball captain is ” absolutely right” because having two white-ball captains will be confusing.

“Rohit Sharma’s selection as ODI and T20 captain is absolutely right because personally what I feel is white-ball cricket should have one captain. You have a T20 captain in Rohit Sharma and a different captain in Virat for ODI then that will be confusing and difficult for players to adjust,” speaking to ANI he asserted.

The former selector further lauded Rohit and said that he is a very calm and composed person.

“Rohit is a good captain as he has done well in the IPL. In Virat Kohli’s absence, he has led India and done well. He is a very calm and composed person,” he stated.

Meanwhile, India has suffered a huge blow as Rohit has been ruled out of the upcoming Test series against South Africa and Priyank Panchal has replaced him in the team.

Team India Test vice-captain Rohit Sharma sustained a left hamstring injury during his training session here in Mumbai yesterday. He has been ruled out of the upcoming 3-match Test series against South Africa. Priyank Panchal will replace Rohit Sharma in the Test squad,” the BCCI in an official statement said.
