India's newly-appointed limited-overs captain Rohit Sharma opened up about Virat Kohli's legacy as India's white-ball captain.
During a chat with the BCCI, Rohit said 'He has put the team in a situation where there is no looking back. Those five years that he led the team, he led from the front every time we stepped onto the park. There was clear grit and determination to win every game. That was the message to the entire squad. We had a great time playing under him. I have played a lot of cricket with him and enjoyed each and every moment and I will still continue to do that. We need to keep getting better as a team and as individuals and that will be the focus for not just me but for the entire squad moving forward.
During Virat's leadership, Rohit was his deputy in the limited-overs format and the pair scored 4906 runs in just 84 matches at an average of over 64 batting together.
