But it looks like Vice-Captain Rohit Sharma’s name is still riding high in the book of ICC World Cup 2019. The Indian opener had a great World Cup except for very few innings including the semi-final match against New Zealand.

At the end of the poll, Rohit Sharma won with 40% of the audience’s vote.
