"My approach to captaincy is different, as I believe in more data-based analysis and understanding of the new trends.
I spend a lot of time in meeting rooms to prepare myself for certain situations that might arise during the match.

NEW DELHI: Ahead of the T20 World Cup , Indian skipper Rohit Sharma shared insights into his captaincy mantra, emphasising clarity, communication, and team unity as the pillars of his leadership approach.Rohit, known for his calm demeanour and tactical acumen, stressed the importance of clear communication with every team member, ensuring that roles and expectations are well understood. He believes that an open dialogue fosters a positive environment, where players feel valued and motivated to perform at their best.Rohit feels the ultimate challenge for any captain is to make sure every player is on the same page."The biggest challenge for any captain is to handle different kinds of players, since every individual has a separate thought process and varying demands. What a captain can do is absorb all things and respond accordingly.The biggest thing I have learned since becoming captain is that every player should be given equal importance so that everyone feels that they are part of this team and they are important," Rohit said on Star Sports ."Whenever someone comes up to you with a problem, you must listen carefully and give them the best solution. I believe that I have to prepare not only as a captain but also as a player," Rohit further said.Rohit clearly stated that his approach to leading the team is a little different."My approach to captaincy is different, as I believe in more data-based analysis and understanding of the new trends. I spend a lot of time in meeting rooms to prepare myself for certain situations that might arise during the match. It's basically not for the player but for me because I need to know about these situations, and when they come on the field, I should be ready with answers.This is the way I prepare as I go through everything, and if I feel that some important things need to be shared with the players, then I do it with them; otherwise, if it's not important, then I won't. But for me, I go with my prep to get to know about the ground, the opposition, and how the team against me is playing of late.The T20 format is always changing, and each player is playing differently. You need to understand their style of play, and as per that, we tell our bowlers and batters to plan accordingly. Basically, I try to filter out information and then pass it on to my teammates without complicating things much."In preparation for the T20 World Cup, Rohit is focussing on strategic planning and adaptability, ready to face the dynamic challenges of T20 cricket with a well-prepared and confident team.
