‘Bhai achi form mein hai, bus World Cup jeetna hai’ – Fans react as Rohit Sharma says he’s focused on contributing for the team
India skipper Rohit Sharma has not just been in great form but has been batting dangerous from the opposition’s perspective. After playing six games, he has 398 runs under his belt averaging 66.33, and a strike rate of 119.16 including a hundred and two fifties. His starts have helped the team get ahead in the game. Meanwhile, ahead of the ODI World Cup 2023 game against Sri Lanka, Sharma said that he plays for the team.

“I am enjoying my batting. But obviously, keeping the situation of the team in mind. It’s not like I go there and try to swing the bat always. I’m looking to play well and wield my bat properly. I need to put my team in a strong position. This is my mindset. The scoreboard starts from zero when you’re opening. As a batter, I have to set the tone for the game. So, I have an advantage that I’m starting things off. So, when you start like that, you can be fearless. Last game, we were put under pressure in the powerplay as we lost three wickets. So, I had to change the game as well. As a batter, my focus is on what is necessary at that time. What’s the requirement in the first over, the 5th over? So I think about all these things and play according to what the situation demands,” said Rohit.
