In a candid interview, Sharma expressed his awareness that as the captain, he would be under the microscope, and even a single match could result in harsh criticism.
Sharma, who has a stellar track record as a batsman and has previously led the Mumbai Indians to multiple Indian Premier League (IPL) titles, is no stranger to the expectations that come with captaincy. However, the World Cup is a different beast altogether, with a global audience and a long history of fierce rivalries.

Despite the enormous responsibility, Sharma appeared determined to stay focused on the task at hand and not let the fear of criticism affect his leadership. I believe in my abilities and the abilities of my team. We are here to win the World Cup, and that’s our ultimate goal, he added.
As the World Cup approaches, Rohit Sharma will need to navigate the challenges of captaincy with resilience and skill. He knows that being labeled a bad captain after just one match is a possibility, but his experience and determination suggest that he is ready to face this daunting task head-on and lead his team to glory.
