Brendon McCullum, the current head coach of England's Test team and a former captain of New Zealand, expressed his admiration for Rohit Sharma's "bold" captaincy during a time when there is a lot of discussion around India's T20I captaincy. Rohit's extremely aggressive mentality as an opening batsman and skipper at the just finished ODI World Cup was one of the most noticeable aspects of his style. At a strike rate of 125, Rohit's 597 runs during the World Cup ranked second only to teammate Virat Kohli's 762 career total. Rohit was not afraid to take risks on the pitch as a leader either.
