LUCKNOW: India skipper Rohit Sharma said that the likes of KL Rahul, Jasprit Bumrah and Rishabh Pant are looked upon as future leaders.
Chetan Sharma, the Chairman of the Selection Committee had said that the management is looking at Rohit to groom future leaders and he also spoke on how the right-handed batter is an ideal candidate to lead the side.
“I won’t have that much of a role in telling them each and everything, they all are mature enough, it is just when someone needs to be there around them to guide them, I will be more than happy to do that. It is how we have come through the ranks, we were groomed by someone else. It is a natural process, everyone goes through this,” said Rohit during a virtual press conference.
“If you talk of Bumrah, Rahul and Pant, they have a big role to play in India’s success. They are looked upon as leaders as well. They do understand there is a responsibility on their shoulders, but we do not want to any pressure on them. We just want them to enjoy the game and execute the skills,” he added.
