Rohit Sharma Never Threw Anyone Under The Bus; He Always Took Responsibility: Nayar
T20 World Cup: Former India assistant coach Abhishek Nayar has lauded Rohit Sharma's leadership during some of the team's most difficult moments, saying the India captain's willingness to shoulder responsibility and his ability to build trust through honest communication helped hold the dressing room together after painful defeats.
Reflecting on his time with the national side, Nayar recalled how Rohit's empathy, accountability, and player-first approach eased pressure on teammates and fostered confidence, even when results did not go India's way. He also said that one of Rohit's defining qualities as captain was his instinct to protect the dressing room after defeats, choosing to absorb criticism himself rather than shift blame onto individuals.
“We had Rohit Sharma as captain, and I remember him coming out after the Mumbai Test and saying in the press conference, 'It's okay. We've won so many series, we've lost this one, and I'll take responsibility for it.' That's who Rohit was. There was always that side of him that could lighten the mood and make sure the team was okay,” Nayar told JioStar.
