Rohit Sharma shares his thoughts on the future of Indian cricket
It was a massive moment for team India when they emerged undefeated in the ICC Champions Trophy tournament, clinching the prestigious trophy after a monumental victory over New Zealand in the final on March 9 in Dubai. Following India’s impressive win, Indian captain Rohit Sharma shared his thoughts on India’s undefeated run throughout the Champions Trophy.
Rohit emphasised on team’s unwavering passion and determination that drove them to success. Rohit also talked about the set-up that has been created to support the progress of young talent.
“That is the whole point. You want to create your bench strength while you’re playing. Whenever we had the opportunity in the last four or five years, we’ve always tried to give opportunities to all these players," Rohit said on the ICC.
“When you are discussing which player to pick, who to drop, who’s going to miss out on the opening eleven, that tells you there is so much depth in this team," Rohit said.
On the white-ball front, the Indian team looks forward to the two ICC events in the next two years, with a T20 World Cup early next year at home and the ODI World Cup in 2027.
“I can surely say that Indian cricket for the future is in very, very safe hands, looking at how the players are coming up, how they want to take that responsibility, how much hunger is there," Rohit said.
“The passion, the talent, all of that is there. It’s just about now going out there and doing it." Rohit said.
