In the final against New Zealand, Team India captain Rohit Sharma showed fearless style with his bat. Rohit completed his half -century from 41 balls in this match and scored 76 runs. In this tournament, there was a difference between Rohit’s previous innings and innings of the final that captain Rohit was seen playing with a different intention this time.
Rohit only changed his perspective and managed to play the match winning innings for India, which the team needed was the highest. Team India got a strong start from Rohit’s innings and also got the basis of victory. After winning the finals of India, opposing captain Mitchell Santner also praised Indian captain Rohit Sharma and also explained why his bowlers were afraid of Rohit.
Kiwi captain said Rohit’s approach may fail on some occasions, but it could prove to be decisive in big matches. Santner feels that Rohit’s approach brought him to the backfoot in Suruat. Santner said that I think if you ask Rohit before the tournament, which match he would like to score the most, perhaps he will be a final, but I think his attitude produces his view in the bowlers. They are aggressive by nature and I think he and Shubman Gill keep pace well. Shubman Gill will wait for the bad ball, but Rohit is happy to play the bowlers with unique length. They do not wait and the fear of this was also among our team bowlers.
Santner further said that, I think Rohit may fail a few times after the way you play, but as he did against us in the final, especially on such a slow wicket. If you give this kind of start to your team, then you can put yourself forward in the match. When you see, his batting was excellent during the powerplay and we came on the backfoot from there. He completely changed the game.
