The current time is not going well for Rohit Sharma, the captain of the Indian cricket team, who won the entire country by winning the T20 World Cup about 8 months ago. Not only his captaincy is under question, but questions are also arising in his place in the team. The same happened in the first match of the ODI series against England just before the Champions Trophy, when his bat failed. Despite this, this match was relaxed for Rohit Sharma because Team India won after the disappointment of 6 matches under his captaincy.

Team India won by 4 wickets in the first match of the ODI series played on Thursday 6 February in Nagpur. In this match, England batting first and could only score 248 runs. Harshit Rana and Ravindra Jadeja took 3-3 wickets from Team India. In response, despite the failure of captain Rohit Sharma (2 runs), Team India won the match within 40 overs. Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer and Akshar Patel, who became the reason for this, came out with strong innings and Team India easily won the match.

First win after 6 consecutive matches

This victory has brought great relief for captain Rohit Sharma as the results of the last few months have not been in his favor. Ever since winning the T20 World Cup, Team India won only 2 in the ODI and Test formats played under Rohit's captaincy. These 2 wins came in the Test series against Bangladesh. Before that, on the tour of Sri Lanka, the team lost 2 ODIs, while there was a tie.

Prior to this ODI series, Team India failed to win in 6 consecutive matches under Rohit's captaincy, out of which he was defeated and a draw. This includes a 0-3 defeat in the Test series against New Zealand at home and then on the tour of Australia, Rohit's captaincy includes 2 out of 3 Tests, while a match was drawn. After this continuous failure, now the Indian team has won a win under Rohit's captaincy.

You will also have to show the bat with the bat

Rohit will expect that under his captaincy, the team would win further and this process continued till the Champions Trophy. However, on the strength of the rest of the players again and again, Team India can be difficult to win and hence captain Rohit also needs to show his own strength. Rohit, who is failing from the last 16 innings of all the formats, needs to get the form in this series before the Champions Trophy.
