What went wrong for Virat & Rohit in Last Six Years
The last six years have been a rollercoaster for Indian cricket, witnessing several global tournaments and missed opportunities. Despite the leadership duo of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, India’s quest for World Cup glory has eluded them.
Virat Kohli’s prolific run-scoring record has been a constant, but the lack of a World Cup title in the last six years remains a glaring omission. Despite consistent performances, the team has faltered at crucial junctures.
Rohit Sharma, known for his explosiveness at the top of the order, has provided flashes of brilliance as a batsman and captain. However, converting individual brilliance into team success on the world stage has been elusive.

The Weight of Expectations
Virat Kohli, often hailed as one of the best batsmen in the world, has carried the burden of immense expectations. As the captain, the pressure to lead from the front and deliver in crucial matches has been monumental.
While on the other hand, Rohit Sharma’s inconsistency in ICC events is evident in the numbers. While he played stellar innings in the 2015 ODI World Cup, the 2016 T20 World Cup, the 2019 & 2023 ODI World Cup, but his performances in the 2017 Champions Trophy and the 2021 T20 World Cup were subpar.
Captaincy Challenges
Virat Kohli, who stepped down from T20 captaincy in 2021, faced challenges in juggling the responsibilities of leading across formats. Balancing captaincy demands while maintaining top-notch performances has been a tightrope walk.
Rohit Sharma’s transition into captaincy comes with its own learning curve. Adapting strategies, handling pressure situations, and making crucial decisions in global tournaments require time and experience.
