MUMBAI: As Team India captain Rohit Sharma turned 35 on Saturday, here’s a trip down the memory lane to relive some of the achievements of the opening batsman who recently took over the reins of the Indian team from Virat Kohli.
Widely hailed as one of the best of his generation, Rohit continues to be a star batter for India, particularly in white-ball cricket.
Rohit made his international debut in 2007 against Ireland and went on to feature at the ICC Men’s World T20 in South Africa in the same year, from where India returned home as champions. Since then, he has cemented his place among the greats of white-ball cricket.
