He described Rohit Sharma as “Fantastic man manager” and “leader” who knows how to win T20 games. “Without question Rohit Sharma should be the Indian T20 captain .. fantastic man manager & leader .. & he knows exactly how to win T20 games .. it would also give Virat chance to take a breather and just be the player .. it’s works for all other teams around the world.” his tweet read.

Boult joined this season
Rcb released him.
bumrah from last 3,4 seasons.. That too in the career beginning you can't consider bumrah as a top bowler.. Its the confidence they gave and made mi a strong team in all sections.

Mi was not born strong it grew up to be strong

MS Dhoni won very first worldcup he played 50-50 and T20 that's why he played these much worldcup as captain if he never won his first worldcup he never might be captain of India … I know Virat should be captain of India but You can't always bring Dhoni …

They have made them . Rcb(Virat) has same freedom to do so. They can buy players in auction and invest time in them . No one was stopping him to do so.
