Rohit Sharma has made history by becoming the second Indian captain, after MS Dhoni, to win the T20 World Cup, leading India to victory against South Africa in a thrilling final. His leadership style is characterized by a blend of freedom and accountability, empowering players to express themselves while maintaining clear expectations. Mohammed Shami praised Rohit for providing autonomy, stating, 'The best thing about Rohit is that he gives you freedom,' but noted that Rohit's reactions reveal his expectations when players fall short. Rohit's calm demeanor and subtle communication techniques allow him to convey messages effectively without the need for words. Additionally, Rohit received the Men's International Cricketer of the Year award, emphasizing his relentless drive for victory, which has only intensified following his recent successes. His future with the Mumbai Indians remains uncertain as speculation grows about a potential change in teams ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction.
