Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma has said leading from the front as a captain was a big responsibility and he always cherished it.

"It will be no different this year as well. I will try and do the same. We have got a great squad and great depth in our batting.

"Along with me there are a few other guys who have played international cricket and proved themselves in the international circuit. We have to share the responsibility. 

"It can't be just one person to win the whole tournament. Last year we hardly had anyone in top five run getters' list which shows everyone contributed and shared responsibility. You will have individual brilliance at times but to win the tournament it has to come form everyone," said the skipper. 

"Not just one person. For us, the past three years that is the reason we had so much success. I would expect to share the same and step up as a leader and perform in every game I can."
