Team India Skipper Rohit Sharma Buys Lamborghini Urus At Rs 3.10 Crore

Under Rohit Sharma’s rule, India’s youngsters have the best chance to conquer the world. His way of passing the information comes with a layer of comfort that often puts his players in a safe space.

Rohit, who was named the skipper of the Indian T20I side in November, is yet to lose a game since taking over the full-time leadership role. After taking 2-0 unbeaten lead against Sri Lanka in the ongoing T20 series, he is eyeing a third-successive series clean sweep, having earlier white-washing New Zealand and West Indies in three-match home series.

"We are going to bowl first, just want to have a score in front of us. It's going to get colder as the game goes on. Same team for us. The changes don't depend on win or loss. It's just about what the team wants," said Rohit Sharma at the toss.

Senior batters Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane were dropped from the two-match Test series against Sri Lanka in March

India face West Indies in a three-match T20I series, starting Wednesday. India whitewashed the West Indies 3-0 in the ODI series last week and will look to stamp their authority in the T20I series.

India whitewashed the West Indies in an ODI series despite the absence of a single power-hitter, which is as much an irony for the visitors as it is for the hosts.

On the other hand, West Indies batter Shai Hope lost out on valuable points and slipped out of the top 10 of the ICC Men's ODI Batting Rankings after the first ODI against India. As a result, Pakistan's Fakhar Zaman and England's Joe Root broke into the top 10 of the batting rankings.

India on Wednesday announced an 18-member squad for the upcoming ODI and T20I series against the West Indies, with Rohit Sharma returning to lead the team and leg spinner Ravi Bishnoi getting maiden call-up to the senior side.

Nobody knows how a champion-like red-ball unit suddenly looked like a bunch of survivors in the African wilderness. More so, It was difficult to digest how nobody among the top six batters in the ODI leg could reach the 3-figure mark in the three matches played!

Rohit, who was recently elevated as India's white-ball captain as Virat Kohli's successor, cracked 906 runs in the calendar year at an average of 47.68 with two centuries.
