Haven't Seen A Captain Like Rohit; Lucky To Start Under Him, Says Akash Deep
Rohit faced continuous flak for his monotonous captaincy and underwhelming batting on the Australia tour. After missing the series opener in Perth due to the birth of his second child, Rohit failed to score beyond 10 runs in the five innings before opting to rest in the fifth Test at Sydney Cricket Ground. He accumulated only 31 runs in the series and came under public scrutiny for his substandard outings.
Speaking exclusively to IANS, Akash hailed Rohit's captaincy and coach Gautam Gambhir's approach and said, "I feel very lucky that I got the opportunity to start under Rohit (Sharma). The way he leads and keeps things simple, I haven’t seen a captain like him so far. Gambhir sir, the way he motivates and gives freedom - those things really help players mentally."
