Following his successful campaign leading India to the Asia Cup 2025 title, T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav reflected on the influential leadership styles of two of India's most celebrated captains, MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma. While Suryakumar expressed regret at never having the chance to play under Dhoni's captaincy for the national side, he praised the veteran's legendary composure.
Suryakumar noted that he learned the importance of staying relaxed in high-pressure situations by observing Dhoni from the opposition side in the IPL. He also lauded Rohit Sharma, his long-time captain at the Mumbai Indians
“Then Rohit bhai (brother), under whom I played a lot of cricket for the IPL franchise and India. He is someone who gets everyone comfortable around them, an inspiration to all youngsters. His door was open 24/7 for everyone.”
