Selfless Rohit Sharma Led Team India's ODI Revolution: Ashwin
The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|February 16, 2025
Hailing Rohit Sharma's selfless approach in one-day internationals, World Cup-winning former India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin said he's a big fan of the skipper, who he believes has set an example for the rest of the team in the 50-over format.
Ashwin lauded Rohit for his muted celebration after scoring a match-winning century in the second ODI against England in Cuttack on 9 February. Ashwin said Rohit is focused on the bigger picture in the lead-up to the Champions Trophy, which is why he downplayed the significance of his hundred, despite it coming after a long lean patch. Rohit smashed 119 off just 90 deliveries in India's successful chase of 305 against England in Cuttack, ending a nearly year-long wait for a three-figure score in international cricket. He silenced his critics with a free-flowing knock, leading India's aggressive batting display—a performance reminiscent of his approach in the 2023 ODI World Cup and the 2024 T20 World Cup.
