Oh Captain, My Captain: Rohit the leader deserves this World Cup

New Delhi, Nov 16 (PTI) How many hundreds did Rohit Sharma miss in this World Cup? At least five if not more. But how many hearts did he win with his new found no-holds barred attacking approach? May be a billion.

With a perfect balance between head and heart, Rohit has taken India into the tournament final.

The high-risk approach has cost him personal milestones but having put team above self, the ‘Hit-Man’ didn’t deviate from his game-plan as he is on a mission to complete what he termed at the start as unfinished business’.

He will be 36 years and 203 days old on November 19, a day which would possibly be his ‘last dance’ and effectively a last chance to win the coveted 50 over World Cup title.

The next 50-over World Cup is too far away and someone that oozes practicality from literally every bone of his body, it would be a long shot to think that at 40 he would be game to play 100-over per day matches in 2027.

Hence November 19, 2023, could be the ‘Red Letter Day’ in 16 and half years of Rohit’s chequered career punctuated with lot of ups and downs.

“In the next two months, I want to create a lot of memories with this team,” Rohit had told
