Rohit Sharma New Record
With this current three-match winning streak, Rohit Sharma has surpassed Sourav Ganguly to become the second most successful Indian skipper in ICC competitions. Under Ganguly’s leadership, India won 16 of 22 games. In contrast, under Rohit, India has now won 17 of 20 ICC tournament matches, including a streak of 10 consecutive victories leading to the ODI World Cup 2023 final against Australia.
Rohit now stands second only to MS Dhoni in terms of the most wins as an Indian captain in ICC events.
