One of India's most iconic cricketers and former captain Kapil Dev reserved special praise for Rohit Sharma's leadership and batting, saying that he is unlike many great players who played for themselves.
Rohit led India's entry into the T20 World Cup semifinals with a stunning knock of 92 off 41 balls, which laid the foundation of India's total of 205/5 and the subsequent 24-run win over Australia in the 'Super 8s' stage of the tournament.
