“I make it a point to interact with players individually, understand their concerns”- Rohit Sharma
At a promotional event in Mumbai, Rohit Sharma spoke about the necessity of open communication and trust within a team. The Indian team leader stated his emphasis on individually assuring all his players and boosting their confidence. Rohit stated this (as per Times of India):
“As a leader, it’s crucial to instill confidence in players and make them feel valued regardless of their role in the team. Each player’s contribution is essential to the team’s success, whether they play ten balls at No. 6 or 7.”
