Speaking on the YouTube channel Khelneeti, Rajkumar Sharma, said that leading the team in SENA will be the real test for Rohit as the strongest teams struggle when they tour India.

He added that an Indian skipper is judged based on his performance in overseas tours and he was hoping that Rohit continues his brilliance as a skipper in the SENA countries.
“Sharma’s real test will be in SENA countries. Even the strongest teams struggle when they come to India. An Indian captain is often judged on the number of matches and series he wins in SENA countries.
“Sharma’s tenure has started on a brilliant note and the team has done well under him so far. I hope he leads the team like this in overseas conditions as well,” Rajkumar Sharma said.

Notably, Rohit has been undefeated since becoming full-time captain of the Indian team. Under his leadership, India recently won three-match T20I & ODI series against West Indies by 3-0.

“You cannot try and groom 4-5 players at once for the captaincy. Virat Kohli remained the vice-captain for a long time under MS Dhoni and got to learn a lot from him.
“Similarly, you need to choose a player who you think can play for India for a long time in all three formats. If you are appointing three vice-captains for three formats, then you should have three different captains who can groom them,” he mainatined.
