Rohit Sharma Names Wriddhiman Saha India’s Best Wicketkeeper as Ashwin Agrees

A circulating video from Rohit’s chat with Bengal’s U-23s highlights his view of Saha’s superior keeping technique on turning pitches.

Overview

  • In a widely shared clip, Rohit calls Saha “India’s best keeper” and says home conditions with sharp turn and low bounce test keepers like no other.
  • He points to the difficulty of keeping to Ravindra Jadeja’s pace and Ravichandran Ashwin’s many variations as proof of Saha’s quality.
  • The remarks were captured during Rohit’s interaction with Bengal’s U-23 squad, where Saha is serving as coach.
  • Ashwin echoed the praise on X with a playful post about his own deliveries before adding, “What a keeper Saha was.”
  • Coverage recapped Saha’s 40 Tests and 104 dismissals and contrasted them with MS Dhoni’s 294 in 90 Tests, prompting fresh online discussion.
