Kapil Dev, the 1983 World Cup-winning captain, has lauded Team India skipper Rohit Sharma’s captaincy, stating that the team has performed “wonderfully well” under his leadership in the ongoing T20 World Cup.
In an interview with ANI, Dev expressed his delight at the ‘Men in Blue’ reaching the T20 World Cup final after a decade, calling it a “wonderful” achievement.
Commenting on Axar Patel and Jasprit Bumrah’s performances against England in India’s last match, the legendary all-rounder emphasized that it was a team effort, rather than the work of any single player. Dev highlighted that when a team reaches the final, the entire squad deserves praise, not just individual players. He stressed the importance of collective team performance over individual contributions.
The T20 World Cup final promises an exciting showdown as the two undefeated teams, India and South Africa, prepare to face off in Barbados on Saturday.
