Nitish Rana showed his attitude as soon as he got the captaincy. He told that he does not want to follow the captaincy of Dhoni, Rohit or Virat.
During a press conference, KKR’s new captain Nitish Rana was asked that you have captained in domestic cricket, but if you look at international cricket, who among Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli do you consider as your ideal? Who do you follow from?
Responding to this, Nitish Rana said, “I do not follow any of these and neither do I want to.” I want to run the game my way. I know that if I start following someone, I can fall behind myself. I will captain this year in my own way.
Not Sarfaraz Khan or Shikhar Dhawan! Sourav Ganguly told- who is ready to play for Team India?
