Team India opener Rohit Sharma was recently seen holidaying in Abu Dhabi after leading the side to a 2-0 Test series win over Bangladesh. Like in India, Rohit was surrounded by the fans there too, and then they told him that they miss the hitman in the T20 format.

Rohit Sharma, the highest run-scorer in T20 history, played 159 matches for India after making his debut in the 2007 T20 World Cup campaign. He became one of the most dangerous batsmen in this format at the international level. After playing eight editions of the World Cup, he retired from the format in June 2024.

A fan told him about missing Rohit Sharma in T-20, after which the opening batsman replied that he has played enough and now the time has come to give a chance to other players.

The fan said- Dada is missing you a lot in T20.

Rohit Sharma replied- That’s it, friend.
