Rohit Sharma Journey and Records as India Captain
Rohit Sharma’s tenure as India’s captain has been an era of dominance, consistency, and near misses in ICC tournaments. Since taking charge, he has successfully guided India to multiple finals, showcasing his leadership prowess. We look at Rohit Sharma Journey and Records as India Captain.
His most significant achievement came in 2024 when he led India to the T20 World Cup title, bringing home an ICC trophy after over a decade-long wait. The victory cemented his legacy as a captain who could deliver on the big stage. And today he scripted history by becoming the second only Indian captain to win 2 ICC trophy, only behind MS Dhoni, who led India to three ICC titles.
Apart from the T20 World Cup triumph, India under Rohit has been a consistent force in international cricket. The team reached four consecutive ICC finals but narrowly missed out on glory in their first two attempts.
In 2023, India stormed into the ODI World Cup final with an unbeaten run, only to fall short against Australia in the summit clash. Earlier that year, they also made it to the World Test Championship 2023 final, where they were outplayed by the same opposition.
Despite these close calls, Rohit’s captaincy has been defined by resilience, adaptability, and an aggressive approach. Under his leadership, India also reached the semifinals of the T20 World Cup 2022, further showcasing their consistency in ICC events. However, the Test format posed challenges, as India failed to qualify for the WTC 2025 final, raising questions about their long-format adaptability under Rohit’s leadership.
While the search for more ICC trophies continues, Rohit Sharma’s captaincy era stands out as one of India’s most competitive phases. Interestingly Rohit Sharma has led Team India in 16 ICC events ODIs and won 15 out of them, losing only one.
