They say a captain is only as good as his team. Rohit Sharma, Mum-bai Indians captain will vouch for that. Yet to lose a game for India after being formally appointed as full-time captain in November, he has overseen five defeats while leading Mumbai Indians (MI) in IPL 14. When he walks out to the toss alongside India Test and T20 opening partner KL Rahul, who will be leading Lucknow Supergiants (LSG) on Match 26 at the Brabourne Stadium on Saturday, he will subscribe to the theory even more, especially as he looks and sees familiar faces like Quinton de Kock and Krunal Pandya in the rival camp.
De Kock, the South African ‘keeperbat was a notable name the five-time champions chose to release and didn’t buyback. Krunal played useful cameos lower down the order and in the event of quick wickets, used to bat higher and acted like a circuit-breaker. His left-arm spin too was mighty effective, especially once the tracks started getting tired (a performance to note was the 2017 IPL final).
