Dive into these books to celebrate Virat and Rohit’s T20 international journeys

Leadership qualities, cricketing miracles and much more — these books from Penguin India have it all

The country is celebrating a landmark T20 World Cup win. India’s last two captains have announced their retirement from the shortest format of the game and we are in awe of everything Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have done on the field for India — from batting brilliance to leadership under pressure — in T20 cricket. As they step away from the format, Penguin India has some book suggestions to honour these legends and their T20I journey.

On Instagram, Penguin India recommended titles like The Miracle Makers: Indian Cricket’s Greatest Epic by Bharat Sundaresan and Gaurav Joshi, which is filled with anecdotes from the 2021 Border Gavaskar Test series victory over Australia. Another suggestion is Cricket 2.0 by Tim Wigmore and Freddie Wilde, offering an inside view of the T20 revolution. Given Rohit and Virat’s success as captains, Leadership Chronicles by Debashis Chatterjee will help decode some of the deep secrets of leadership through history. 

If you want more book suggestions, check out Penguin India’s post on Instagram and add these titles to your reading list today.
