Rohit Sharma is the reason Mumbai Indians can brag about being the most successful team in IPL history. He joined the team in 2011 and took the captaincy in 2013 when Mumbai won its first championship. With a promising team at hand, Rohit Sharma has been a magnificent captain and has displayed his leadership skills to gain results. His batting line-up, as well as a change in bowling line to break budding partnerships, has brought him great success as a captain. Rohit Sharma has been consistent with his game and captained the team well. Under his captaincy, the team has won 4 championships, the most by any IPL team.
On the other hand, we have MS Dhoni, skipper of Chennai Super Kings team. Under his captaincy, Chennai Super Kings won the 2010 and 2011 and 2018 Indian Premier League titles. CSK is the only team to reach the finals 8 times despite being banned for 2 seasons. MS Dhoni has always been a great support to the young domestic talent and led them by example. His phenomenal leadership earned him the title of ‘Thala’ which means leader in Tamil. The wicket-keeper batsman knows perfectly what changes to bring on the field depending on the batsman at the crease to get wickets. With a mix of great domestic and international talents, MS Dhoni has been a successful captain in IPL and has been one of the most liked captains.
Both these captains have played the role of perfect skippers. Let us know if you think Rohit Sharma is a better captain than MS Dhoni as he has won more IPL titles.
