I’m gone, you won’t see me for while’ signifying we won’t see him as a coach or a commentator like former India players still connected to the game.
Virat Kohli famously once said ‘Once I’m gone. Ravichandran Ashwin suggests Mumbai Indians should immediately hire Rohit Sharma as a coach after retirement, while predicting Virat Kohli will likely take a much-needed break from the sport first. His teammate Ashwin has reiterated the same sentiment.
During a recent discussion, seasoned Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, who has frequently expressed personal aspirations of stepping into a coaching role after hanging up his boots, addressed whether two of the nation’s greatest modern batsmen might transition into management once their playing days conclude. he strongly recommended that the Mumbai Indians franchise secure Rohit Sharma in a coaching capacity the moment he retires While Ashwin believes that Virat Kohli would likely step away from the game temporarily before considering a dugout role.
Because it’s a labor-intensive role, but after a one-two year break, he’ll be ready to take up a role, if he doesn’t want to be head coach. “A captain who won five titles and led India to a World Cup, you won’t find such people. And knowing the Mumbai Indians, they won’t let go of a player with Rohit Sharma’s thinking capacity.”
“If tomorrow Rohit decides ‘I won’t play,’ Mumbai Indians should immediately absorb him,” Ashwin remarked. Like Rahul bhai took a break and then came back to work. So I think they should immediately absorb such cricketers and not let them go.
