#1 The captain and leader
Rohit Sharma has won the IPL 5 times, which is the most by anyone and with Mumbai Indians as their captain, he has won it 4 times. He is someone who doesn't like to chop and change much with the established set-up and he always gives youngsters a chance. There's no doubt that he has a quality group to work with but he is the one who gave chances to the Pandya brothers, Jasprit Bumrah, and Rahul Chahar, who now have become internationals.
When one compares his record as captain with someone else, the only other one coming close to him is MS Dhoni with 3 IPL titles. Sharma is the most successful captain in IPL ever and until he remains the skipper of MI, they will always be one of the favorites for the cup. Moreover, MI, over the years, have always kept hold of their core. The likes of Lasith Malinga, Jasprit Bumrah, Kieron Pollard, Hardik Pandya, and Krunal Pandya have been with the franchise for years and every single one of them knows what needs to be done in order to lift the IPL trophy.
That experience, mixed with some quality overseas internationals and young talents gives you a team to look out for in IPL 2020. Will Rohit Sharma be able to do it again? He might!
