‘Virat Kohli tried to go hard…’: Rohit Insight On Virat’s Rare Golden Duck In 3rd T20I Against Afghanistan

During Virat’s dismissal with a golden duck, captain Sharma hit the highest 121* to support India post 212-4 in the 20-over competition. Excitingly, Rohit batted thrice as India played out two Super Overs to sneak by Afghans in the 3rd T20I match.

Talking to Jiocinema after the tournament, Rohit confessed that the 50-over World Cup is the greatest reward for him. Rohit drove India to the final of the 2023 World Cup that’s a massive achievement for him until the next.

While speaking to Jio Cinema, Rohit stated:

“We only need to give the players clarity to the players about their position and the manner of cricket we want them to play with. The boys know what to expect when they come out onto the ground. As you saw today, Kohli tried to go hard from the word go, he normally does not do that, but he showed the intent. Same with Samson, he was out first ball, but the intent was there”.

I grew up watching the ODI World Cup, Says Mumbai Indian Ex-Skipper Rohit Sharma

Rohit further added, “See I don’t want to think about that right now. The 50-over World Cup is the ultimate prize for me, it’s not like I don’t regard the T20 World Cup and the Test Championship as important events. I grew up watching the ODI World Cup, and when it happens in India, the vibe is unmatched.”

“We tried our best, but unfortunately, we could not win. The entire team was upset, and I am sure the people were quite angry as well. But now, we have an opportunity to win the T20 World Cup, and hopefully we win it”.
