Rohit Sharma got the opportunity to lead Mumbai Indians in 2013 and he immediately responded with an IPL trophy to prove his mettle as a skipper at this level. He didn’t stop there as he went on to win another 4 trophies for Mumbai Indians and is the most successful IPL captain at the moment. No captain has 5 trophies in the history of the league.
He is also only the second captain after MS Dhoni to successfully defend the trophy in IPL history. Mumbai Indians did not make the playoffs in IPL 2021, and Rohit Sharma would be determined to take his team to another title in IPL 2022.
