Rohit Sharma's India captaincy is an exceptionally unconventional case. Indian cricket has a background marked by blooding young people for the job. As a matter of fact, three of the best captains - Sourav Ganguly, MS Dhoni, and Virat Kohli - were designated chiefs at the age of 27, 26, and 27 separately. However, when Rohit assumed control over the reins from Kohli, he was very nearly 34.
That is, until Kohli chose to step down from T20Is, and Tests and was taken out from his situation in ODIs. His time was now.

As India approaches the World Cup, a harsh test anticipates Rohit, who remains in the terminating line. He is very much aware of the way that India hasn't come out on top for an ICC championshipthroughout the previous 10 years and yet, isn't worrying about it. Despite the fact that India are top choice to lift the World Cup crown given it's being played on their home turn, the very genuine Rohit doesn't ensure a thing.
"I don't have an answer for it (Will India win the World Cup). How can I say that now? All I can hope is that the team is in a good space. Everybody is fit and fine. That's all I can hope for. I cannot say beyond this." Rohit said.

"Clearly, you need to be at your top for this, say when you are 26-27. Be that as it may, you can't necessarily get what you need. You are discussing the Indian captaincy and there have been stalwarts in the Indiangroup. A lot more players should have been the commander of the group. I needed to sit tight for my turn and that is totally all good. The folks previously, Virat was before me, so was MS (Dhoni)," he said.

"Simply take a gander at the names that are passed up a great opportunity: Gautam Gambhir, Virender Sehwag … these are stalwarts of Indian cricket. Not to fail to remember Yuvraj Singh. He never captained India. Yuvraj has been such a match victor for India, he ought to have been the skipper at some stage yet he didn't get it. Such is reality. I got it now and I'm appreciative of it. I would prefer to have it when I know how to chief a group when I realize what is required and what is not.
