#4 Rohit's proven track record as a captain
Rohit Sharma might be new to captaining India, but he isn't new to captaincy in general. He has been captaining his IPL franchise, Mumbai Indians, since 2013 and has led them to IPL glory three times in 2013, 2015 and 2017.
Rohit has led the Mumbai Indians' side brilliantly, and has shown the ability to get his team back on track after being completely down and out. Even though leading India is completely different from leading an IPL side, Rohit knows how captaincy works out. In the short time that he has lead India, he has been extremely successful. India has won every series under his captaincy so far.
