Rohit Sharma said&nbsp;he has imbibed the ability to remain calm under pressure from none other than former captain MS Dhoni.

"He never panicked, took time while taking decisions. There are those similarities in me too," said Rohit while adrre4sing the media after winning the 2018 Asia Cup in the last-ball thriller against Bangladesh on Friday.

Dhoni has been facing the criticism for his slow game and he might&nbsp;be dwindling rapidly, while coach Ravi Shastri has praised Rohit's calm demeanour during their victorious Asia Cup campaign, a trait that he has picked up from his illustrious predecessor.&nbsp;

"Whatever I have seen of him (Dhoni) leading the side for all these years, he never panicked, took time while taking decisions. There are those similarities in me too," skipper Rohit told media persons today.&nbsp;

"Look, we always learn from (MS) Dhoni because he has been such a good captain.&nbsp;

"Whenever we encountered a problem or a question on the field, he was always there with an answer. What I have observed, him captaining the team over the years, is that he never panics, takes a few seconds before taking a decision, thinks about it then decides…so there is that similarity..I think I also have that. I also try to think and then react," said Rohit Sharma.

The stylish Mumbaikar spoke about qualities in Dhoni that he has tried to inculcate.&nbsp;

"I also try to first think and then react. Yes, 50-over cricket gives you time but still you need to take time as well. I have learnt this from seeing him, we have played for so many years under his captaincy. Whenever there is something, he is ready with advice."&nbsp;

Dhoni didn't exactly set the Asia Cup on fire with his batting but his smart glovework and strategic interventions were for everyone to see.&nbsp;

"We always keep on learning from Dhoni bhai because he has been such a great captain. Whenever there were questions or doubts on the field, he was always there to answer," Rohit signed off.
