“He will lead India to win the trophy”- AB de Villiers picks an India player who will lead India to win 2023 World Cup

Team India has been in great form in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023. They have not lost a single game so far and are at the top of the points table with 10 points. India will now face England in their next game. That match will be played on Sunday at the Ekana Stadium, and India will be favorites to win the game.

The team is looking pretty good, and the batters are scoring runs and the bowlers are taking important wickets. Virat Kohli has been superb with the bat and has scored runs in every match. On the other hand, Jasprit Bumrah has taken wickets consistently, and other bowlers have also done well. But can India win the tournament?

Rohit Sharma can help India to win 2023 World Cup – AB de Villiers

All the Indian players have done a good job so far but the way Rohit Sharma has performed is just brilliant. The Indian captain has given India a great start in last four games and hasn’t gone for his personal records. Rohit has scored 311 runs in five innings at an average and strike rate of 62.20 and 133.47. His good starts have helped the other batters take time and do well.

That’s what AB de Villiers also feels. The former South African captain reckons that Rohit Sharma will be the one who will take India to success in this tournament. In a discussion with Cricket Times, De Villiers said, “Rohit Sharma has been fantastic for the Mumbai Indians as captain, and he’s starting to show that in Indian colors now, which is promising for the future in the near term for this world cup to lift that trophy.”

De Villiers also compared the Indian captain with Matthew Hayden. He said that Rohit reminds him of the way Hayden used to play and hit the ball hard and long. De Villiers also warned the other teams that Rohit can be the one on whom they need to focus more when they play against India.
