Rohit Sharma, who made his India debut under Rahul Dravid's leadership back way in 2007, remembers that moment vividly and is hoping to create many happy memories in their new partnership.
India's new T20I captain Rohit Sharma recalled his first interaction with current head coach Rahul Dravid in 2007, when he was over the moon after making his debut under the then skipper in Ireland. India were facing South Africa in three ODIs in Ireland when a young and promising 20-year-old Rohit made his debut for India.

Since that debut in an ODI against Ireland, Rohit has gone on to become one of the greats in white-ball cricket and Dravid, after achieving greatness as a player, has been instrumental in creating the national team's feeder line as a coach.
