Rohit Sharma addressed the media for the first time as Team India's captain in T20Is on Tuesday. Rohit was part of a joint press conference along with newly-appointed Team India head coach, Rahul Dravid, ahead of the start of the three-match T20I series against New Zealand, which begins in Jaipur on Wednesday. Both Dravid and Rohit answered questions on a wide range of topics including the template for the team in the shortest format going forward, and the importance of workload management for players who are playing all three formats. When asked about the role of former T20I captain Virat Kohli in the set-up, Rohit said that Kohli remains a very important player for the team.
