India vs SL 2nd T20I: Rohit Sharma nears BIG captaincy record; stands on verge of surpassing Virat Kohli in THIS elite list
Zee News
Rohit Sharma can become the most successful T20I skipper at home with the win against Sri Lanka in the second T20I. Also, the Indian skipper is also set to surpass Virat Kohli to a huge feat.
After a thumping victory in the first T20I, the Rohit Sharma-led Team India will look to continue the winning momentum and clinch the three-match series when they face Sri Lanka in the second T20l, in Dharamshala on Saturday.
Notably, Team India are on a winning spree as they have so far registered 10 T20I wins in a row. Since the loss to New Zealand in the T20 World Cup 2021, the Men in Blue haven’t lost any match in the shortest format of the game.
India’s 10 T20I wins in a row:
Interestingly, the win in the second T20I against Sri Lanka will not only seal the series and continue India’s winning momentum, but it will also see Rohit Sharma becoming the T20I captain with most ever wins at home.
Rohit has led India to 15 wins in 16 matches at home in the shortest format. He has two more T20I wins than Virat Kohli and five more than MS Dhoni at home. Overall, the ‘hitman’ is currently tied with England's Eoin Morgan and New Zealand's Kane Williamson and the victory against Sri Lanka in the penultimate T20I will mean that Rohit will become the most successful T20I captain at home.
