Indian T20I captain Rohit Sharma hailed one of the greatest batsmen of all time, AB de Villiers, post his retirement and credited him for the amount of impact he has had. Rohit and AB de Villiers might have not played together many times, but they are two of the top batters of the generation in limited-overs cricket.

De Villiers, who retired from international cricket three years ago, had decided yesterday to retire from all formats of cricket, and a lot of cricketers had poured their wishes for him on his successful career. He has been a match-winner in any format, and for any team, he has played.

Rohit Sharma Starts His International Captaincy With A Series Win

The new T20I leader for India, Rohit, has recently started his captaincy campaign with a series win over New Zealand. India won the first T20I convincingly, and Rohit’s brilliant half-century in the second game secured a series victory for India now.

Rohit and Rahul have had an excellent run at the top of the order with five consecutive fifties in the last five games, and they will now be hoping to continue the successful run.
