A surprising discussion has come to light regarding Rohit Sharma, who is counted among the most successful captains in IPL history. Rohit, who made Mumbai Indians champion five times, has not been included in an IPL all-time eleven. This team has been selected by none other than former Mumbai Indians player Chris Jordan, who has played many matches under the captaincy of Rohit. This is the reason why fans are finding this decision more shocking.
In this all-time XI selected by Chris Jordan, not only Rohit Sharma, but Mumbai Indians’ veteran all-rounder Kieron Pollard has also been left out. Pollard is counted among the most influential players in IPL history, hence the absence of his name has also become a topic of discussion.
Trust on Kohli and Gayle in opening
Jordan has chosen Virat Kohli and Chris Gayle for the opening pair of his team. Virat Kohli is the highest run-scorer in the IPL and has opened for Royal Challengers Bangalore on many occasions. Chris Gayle is considered to be the most dangerous batsman in T20 cricket, who has played many memorable innings in IPL.
Jordan has included AB de Villiers, Suresh Raina and Suryakumar Yadav in the middle order. AB de Villiers is known for his explosive batting, while Suresh Raina is called “Mr. IPL”. Suryakumar Yadav has been one of the most reliable batsmen of T20 cricket in recent years.
Dhoni became captain
MS Dhoni has been selected as the wicketkeeper and the captaincy of the team has also been handed over to him. Dhoni is one of the most successful captains of IPL and has led Chennai Super Kings to titles many times.
Hardik Pandya and Sunil Narine will play the role of all-rounders in the team. Both have won many matches in IPL with batting and bowling. Talking about the bowling attack, it includes Jasprit Bumrah, Lasith Malinga and Yuzvendra Chahal. Bumrah and Malinga are counted among the most dangerous fast bowlers of IPL, while Chahal has been a consistent wicket-taking spinner.
Rohit’s record so far
Rohit Sharma has scored more than 7000 runs in IPL. He has 2 centuries and 47 half-centuries to his name. His average in IPL has been 29.73. Not only this, he has also hit 302 sixes and 640 fours.
