They are both human beings, and a human being who is struggling to do well in his job/life and ends up finding success is worth celebrating and cherishing.
Babar blows Rohit out of the water in ODIs check their numbers. Babar innings vs Australia is better than smashing Lankan trundlers for 250 in a meaningless match.
Rohit just got humiliated in Australia and had to drop himself. Babar top scored in SA vs SA. Talent wise Babar > Rohit. He just needs longevity.
SA in SA was a weak attack in test? I expect better from you Dr Sahab
We are talking about ODI here.
Were you talking about ODI when you spoke about Rohit dropping himself? Don't be intellectually dishonest. Btw ATG Rohit got out for 1.
No champion trophy is Rohit last international tournament.
He will be kicked out. Unlike other countries India has a completely new XI that can replace this XI. Great bench strength. T20 has clearly proved that. So prolonged failures will not be taken lightly going forward.
He cannot even bend anymore. Most shameful selection in the world and he is captaining LOLRohit Sharma drops a sitter, denying Axar Patel a hat-trick
He is Brendon Mccullum 2.0 of late...it all started from CWC 2023...only end of power play marks his end nowHitman started well. He looks good but just needs to work on his fitness. I prefer scoring a few runs quickly rather than playing tuk..tuk and wasting the powerplay.
Well done, Rohit.
Doesn't mean much. Sample size is very small. Also, these 2 games (Semis & Finals - If India reaches there) will probably be his last ever ODI games. So if he wins them, his win % in ICC ODI events will be difficult to beat for any future captain.
1.5 tournaments vs 5 or 4 tournaments.. not a fair comparison at all.
He's only captained in spin friendly conditions. In Asia or WI
So?
Shami was the highest wicket taker. Not spinners. Infact spinners were hardly effective in 2023 world cup.
He is wrong at so many levels. Top 4 out of 5 wicket takers for India under Rohit's captains in ICC events are fast bowlers

Congress’s Shama Mohamed Defends ‘Rohit Sharma Is Fat’ Remark Amid Big Row: ‘In A Democracy…’
Congress spokesperson Dr Shama Mohamed deleted her post calling Indian captain Rohit Sharma “fat" and “unimpressive" following massive backlash. In a now-deleted post on X (formerly Twitter), she said, “Rohit Sharma is fat for a sportsman! Need to lose weight! And of course the most unimpressive Captain India has ever had!"
Despite the outrage, Mohamed doubled down on her criticism, defending her stance by comparing Rohit to past Indian captains. She questioned his decision-making, stating, “Didn’t he move KL Rahul to bat at number 3 at the MCG Test & put himself at number 1 which backfired totally! Wasn’t that a selfish move? Because of that, Shubam Gill was out of the XI."
“Didn’t we lose the last World Cup which took place in Ahmedabad? I have compared him to our previous captains," the Congress spokesperson went on to say.
Even as her remarks sparked a heated debate, Mohamed continued her attack, calling Rohit a “mediocre player" and a “mediocre captain". In another post, she argued, “What is so world class about him when compared to his predecessors like Ganguly, Tendulkar, Dravid, Dhoni, Kohli, Kapil Dev, Shastri and the rest! He is a mediocre captain as well as a mediocre player who got lucky to be the Captain of India."
“It was just a generic tweet about the fitness of a sportsperson. It is not body shaming. It is about the fitness of a sportsperson. I always believe a sports person has to be fit. So, I felt he is a bit overweight, so I tweeted on that. I am being attacked for no reason," Mohamed told ANI.
She added, “When I compared him to other captains like Dhoni, or for that matter Ganguly, Dravid, Tendulkar, Kapil Dev, and Virat, so I put up a statement."
She went on to say, “It [India] is a democracy. I have the right," asking, “What’s wrong in saying?"
Shama Mohamed defended herself by praising Virat Kohli, recalling how he stood by Mohammed Shami when the pacer faced backlash after India’s loss to Pakistan. “Let’s not forget how Virat Kohli was attacked when he supported his teammate Mohammed Shami. They lost against Pakistan and most of them started attacking Shami, and Virat, being the captain, stood by his teammate," Shama Mohamed praised Virat Kohli.
She further highlighted Kohli’s leadership, saying, “Virat Kohli, whenever there is a youngster who catches a ball in a match, he goes and hugs him. He leads from the front. He scores runs. He is a captain of the team, and he always compliments the other person whenever there is an opponent who does well. Virat Kohli compliments them.
“I just spoke in a generic manner and I failed to understand that in a democracy we don’t have the right to speak in such a manner," the Congress leader defended herself.
This, however, is not the first time that Indian Captain Rohit Sharma has been fat-shamed. Former South African cricketer Daryll Cullinan raised concerns about Rohit Sharma’s fitness and even compared him to Virat Kohli.
“Look at Rohit, then at Virat. Notice the difference in their physical condition. Rohit is overweight, and not a long-term cricketer anymore. Rohit is not in a good physical condition to play in a four or a five-match Test series," Cullinan told InsideSport in December last year.

Prasad has become a proper bhakt now.
He could have been the key, but India still going strong.
I would go with Pant, Jaiswal, Gill or Abhishek, Jaiswal, Gill. You need a dasher at the top in the 2 new balls era.
Sai should replace kohli at 3.He has the temperament and technique to survive on south African pitches.Having pant , kl should be discouraged as we will not have much bowling options. Nitish can be tried at 5 as he is solid player with good attacking shots and clutch mentality. Jurel is also good .we should experiment more and get the rt combo.There should be no point of carrying on washed up players and mental midgets for next wc.
If India wins chances of these guys retiring is very high. From that angle hope that happens. KL Rahul will be hanging on to his spot. Jadeja is doubtful that he will retire.
I think whatever happens rohit will go.he can't last more than 15 balls let alone pp.kl will be on the edge with pant, Samson, jurel .Nitish will aso have a good chance at 5.still 2.5 years for next odi wc, so kl may crack at some point of time for team sake
. Jadeja will be almost 39 for next wc.so i don't think he will be there.washi may fill him up. Usual suspects as per me.
In how many matches? Would’ve been interesting to see.Near the top
Rohit has least among the 3 i guess
