Rohit Sharma’s name comes after these two players, who have led the Indian team to victory in most T20 matches. In a very short time, Sharma has overtaken Dhoni and Kohli in many places in terms of captaincy. A special record in these records is that he has left behind these two captains of India in the matter of getting the most wins in a calendar year.
In fact, Dhoni had won a maximum 15 matches in the year 2016 as a captain for the Indian team. At the same time, in the year 2018, the Indian team had won 14 matches under the leadership of Kohli. However, Sharma has now left these two batsmen behind. Under his leadership this year (2022), Team India has won 16 matches. Not only this, there are still many months left for the end of the year 2022. In such a situation, Sharma has a chance to learn more.
Captains who have led the Indian team to most wins in T20 cricket in a calendar year:
- Mahendra Singh Dhoni – 15 wins – 2016
