'If you ask me who's better...': Shastri can't keep calm, calls Rohit Sharma vs Dhoni comparison right down the middle

Hindustan Times  

Rohit Sharma may have just received the biggest compliment of his career. Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni during the 2019 World Cup Shastri, who monitored both Rohit and Dhoni during his time as India coach from 2015 to 2021, has nothing to separate the two when it comes to captaincy. Dhoni is arguably India's greatest captain, but Rohit, after leading to the T20 World Cup in June, has cemented his place in the very short list of India's World Cup winning captains – featuring Dhoni and Kapil Dev. Since taking over as India's full-time captain in November of 2021, Rohit started off slow – losing the 2022 Asia Cup and the T20 World Cup, but really picked up steam in 2023 – beating Australia in a Test series at home, winning the Asia Cup and leading India to a runner-up finish at the ODI World Cup – which by far is looked up to as India's most dominant and ruthless campaigns ever at the World Cup. Rohit's tenure as captain since taking over After leading India to a 1-1 Test draw in South Africa, the team also laid waste to England with a 4-1 thumping at home.
