The team’s star batsman Virat Kohli played an important role in the final match. Speaking about his success in the tournament, Rohit thanked BCCI secretary Jay Shah, chief selector Ajit Agarkar and former head coach Rahul Dravid for their constant support. He also called them the ‘three pillars’ and said that his goal is to turn Team India into a winning team. The 37-year-old said that he does not worry much about statistics or results and wants to build a good dressing room and give freedom to all the players. Rohit Sharma’s statement on Jay Shah, Ajit Agarkar and Rahul Dravid Team India captain Rohit Sharma said after being named the best male international cricketer of the year at the ‘CEAT Cricket Rating Awards’, “It was my dream to change this team and not worry too much about statistics, results, to ensure that we create an environment where people can go out on the field and play freely without thinking too much.” He said, “This was what was needed. I got a lot of help from my three pillars which are actually Jay Shah, Rahul Dravid (and) chairman of the selection committee Ajit Agarkar. What I did was very important for me and of course not to forget the players who came at different times and helped the team achieve what we achieved,” Rohit said. Rohit said that winning the World Cup was something that can never be expressed in words. He said, “(It was) a feeling that cannot come every day. When we won the World Cup, it was important for all of us to enjoy the moment, which we did quite well and also thank our country for celebrating with us.” The Indian captain further said, “As much as it meant to us, it meant as much to the whole country. It felt great to bring it back home and celebrate with everyone here.” He said, “(It is) a great feeling that can never be described in words. I don’t think it is a feeling that can be expressed.”
What did Vikram Rathore say about Rohit Sharma, he said- he never changes his game plan…
Vikram Rathore was the batting coach of Team India till T20 World Cup 2024 Vikram Rathour and Rohit Sharma (Image Credit- Twitter Former batting coach of the Indian cricket team Vikram Rathour has recently made a big statement praising Indian captain Rohit Sharma. Vikram has said that Rohit may forget once whether to choose bowling or batting during the toss, but he never forgets his game plan. It is worth noting that under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, the Indian team was successful in reaching the finals of the World Test Championship 2023 and the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, but could not win the final. However, after this India won the recently concluded T20 World Cup 2024 under the captaincy of Rohit. With this victory, India ended the drought of not winning the ICC trophy for 11 years. Vikram Rathore gave a big statement about Rohit Sharma Let us tell you that recently Vikram Rathore said on the ‘Find a Way with Taruwar Kohli’ podcast – He (Rohit) may forget whether he has decided to bat or bowl at the time of the toss. He may forget his phone and iPad in the team bus, but he never forgets his game plan. He is very clever in this and is a very smart strategist. Vikram further said- He is a player’s captain. He is invested with the players. I have never seen a captain who is so invested in team meetings and strategies. He spends a lot of time on team strategy. He is a part of the bowlers’ meeting and the batsmen’s meeting. He (Rohit) sits with the batsmen and bowlers and tries to understand what they are thinking. He spends a lot of time with the team players. On the other hand, if we talk about Rohit, after winning the T20 World Cup 2024, he had decided to say goodbye to T20 cricket. However, now he can be seen playing in the Test series against Bangladesh next month?
There may be a fight between Sunil Gavaskar and Jay Shah! Virat Kohli-Rohit Sharma are the reason for this
Former India great Sunil Gavaskar believes Jasprit Bumrah is justified in being rested but Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma should have played the Duleep Trophy. Sunil Gavaskar Jay Shah (Source X) Sunil Gavaskar believes Indian captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli should have played in the first round matches of the Duleep Trophy 2024 before the two-Test series against Bangladesh starting on September 19. The names of many players were included in the four teams announced for the first round of matches starting on September 5, but these two star batsmen have not been included. The reason given is that Kohli and Rohit were given the option to play, but the two senior experienced cricketers decided not to participate in it. Jai Shah had said- “We should not put pressure on players like Rohit and Virat to play in the Duleep Trophy. This will put them at risk of getting injured. If you have noticed, not every international player plays domestic cricket in Australia and England. We should treat the players with respect.” Sunil Gavaskar is not convinced with Jay Shah’s words However, former India great Sunil Gavaskar believes that Jasprit Bumrah is justified to be rested, but Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma should have played. He says that Rohit and Virat are getting older. They need to play as much as possible to stay in form. There are no more ODIs this year and both of them have retired from T20, so they needed preparation in the Duleep Trophy. “The selectors have not picked captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli for the Duleep Trophy, so they will probably go into the Bangladesh Test series without much practice,” Gavaskar wrote in his column for Mid-Day. He further added, “While it is understandable that a player like Jasprit Bumrah needs to be handled with care with his delicate back, batsmen need to bat for some time in the middle.” “Once a player reaches the age of 30-plus in any sport, regular competition will help him maintain the high standards he has set. When there is a long gap the muscle memory weakens to some extent and it is not easy to get back to the earlier high standards.”

On completion of 4 years of Dhoni’s retirement, Star Sports released a special video of Rohit Sharma; you will cry
On the completion of four years of MS Dhoni’s retirement from international cricket, Star Sports has shared a video from the year 2021 on its official X handle. Rohit Sharma of India celebrates with MS Dhoni. (Photo by Scott Barbour/Getty Images) On August 15, 2020, Mahendra Singh Dhoni announced his retirement from international cricket through a short post on Instagram. After that Dhoni IPLDhoni continues to play in the Indian team, where he remains a fan favourite. His leadership, cricketing skills and contribution to Indian cricket have earned him a legendary status in the game. Dhoni has been responsible for grooming many of the current cricketers of the Indian team, including Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja and Shikhar Dhawan. Dhoni was known for giving opportunities to young and emerging players and supporting them through tough times and has played a key role in shaping the careers of many Indian cricketers. His belief in the abilities of players and his patience has allowed many players to grow under his leadership. On the completion of four years of MS Dhoni’s retirement from international cricket, Star Sports shared a video from the year 2021 on its official X handle, in which current Indian captain Rohit Sharma talks about Dhoni’s role in shaping his career. Rohit Sharma reveals how Dhoni played a key role in shaping his career Rohit became the second Indian captain after Dhoni to win the T20 World Cup title when India ended their ICC Trophy drought in the West Indies in June earlier this year. In the video filmed during the T20 World Cup 2021, Rohit says- “I made my World Cup debut under him (Dhoni), which was in 2007 and since then our journey has been very long, we have played a lot of cricket together. His ability to be with a young player and encourage him, no matter what the situation of the game is, no matter how the player is performing, he just tries to make sure that there is enough restraint around that player, the player doesn’t feel insecure, and I think that is a very important thing when a player comes into the team.” “Even a player who has played a lot of matches, when he goes through a bad phase, you need someone who can come to you and pat your back and say ‘Hey there is nothing to worry about. You have all the ability, talent and everything, just need to go out there and enjoy the match. You need that kind of support and cooperation from your captain and that is what we all got when he was the captain.
