There is also a very deep friendship between Yuvraj Singh and Rohit Sharma. Yuvi played the last season of IPL in 2019 for Mumbai Indians under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. Also, both of them have played together for India for many years.
Yuvi has further said that Rohit has got a lot of success, but he never changed as a person. ,He is a very funny man. From the streets of Borivali (in Mumbai), we always tease him. But he is a wonderful person at heart. No matter how much success he got, he never changed as a person. This is the beauty of Rohit Sharma. Always fun to be with, great leader on the field and one of my closest friends in cricket. I really want to see Rohit Sharma with the World Cup trophy and medal. He really deserves it.
