Hindustan Times  

Rohit Sharma once again set the standards by leading the Indian team from the front with an explosive start against Bangladesh in the second Test in Kanpur. India's captain Rohit Sharma catch a ball on the fourth day of the second cricket test match between Bangladesh and India in Kanpur. Former BCCI chief selector Saba Karim was highly impressed with Rohit's transformation as captain in red-ball cricket. I think that's the kind of transformation we have seen in Rohit Sharma's captaincy in Test cricket now and before that we have seen in white ball cricket in T20 and ODI World Cups," Karim said on Jio Cinema. A very refreshing sight from Rohit Sharma's captaincy India reached 50 runs in three overs, 100 in 10.1 and 200 in 24.2 -- the fastest ever by a test team -- in their bid to force a result in a Test which has lost more than two days' play to bad weather.
