South African cricket legend AB de Villiers believes India’s Champions Trophy-winning captain, Rohit Sharma, has plenty of cricket left in him and no reason to retire.
“Rohit Sharma has no reason to retire,” de Villiers said on his YouTube channel. “He doesn’t deserve any criticism. His record speaks for itself.”
Rohit recently scored 76 in the Champions Trophy final against New Zealand, helping India secure victory and earning the player-of-the-match award.
De Villiers, known for his aggressive batting, pointed out the improvement in Rohit’s game. “If we look at his strike rate in the powerplay, it was quite low for an opening batter, but since 2022, it’s risen to 115, which shows the difference between good and great. Transforming your game never stops, there’s always something to learn and improve.”
