Under Rohit’s captaincy, Mumbai Indians secured titles in 2015, 2017, 2019, and 2020, with a playoff appearance in IPL 2023.

Since 2013, Rohit’s tenure as Mumbai Indians’ captain has been nothing short of extraordinary. He said-

“We express our gratitude to Rohit Sharma for his exceptional leadership; his tenure as the captain of the Mumbai Indians since 2013 has been nothing short of extraordinary.”
