We know Rohit Sharma is one of the best white-ball cricketers globally. But the naturally gifted batsman found his captaincy supremacy in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

When Rohit was made the captain of Mumbai Indians (MI) in 2013, nobody would have guessed the consequences. Rohit then led the team to the championship five times.

Speaking about Rohit Sharma’s personal feats in the tournament, the Indian captain had been the best batter for Deccan Chargers for the first three IPL seasons before being brought to MI in 2011.

Find out Rohit Sharma’s year-wise batting stats in IPL in the table below.
