The cricket world fans are ready to witness the arch rivalry again on the pitch after the Virat Kohli-led team’s epic defeat against Pakistan in the T20 World Cup last year.
Since the step-down of Virat as captain, Rohit Sharma has been managing the team with his excellent captaincy skills. In a recent interview, Rohit Sharma commented on his formula to win the match against Pakistan. Here’s what he has commented.
Everyone is watching the game, especially when it is India vs Pakistan. For sure, it’s a high-stakes game for us, no question about it, but we want to maintain a relaxed attitude inside the group and avoid inflating the game’s stakes within ourselves. For us, it’s simply a cricket match. Rahul Bhai and I must convey to the players that this is just another opponent, he remarked.
India will enter the competition as the defending champions after taking home the Asia Cup in 2018 under the leadership of Rohit Sharma. Rohit Sharma also has a stellar track record as a captain, whether in the IPL, where he led Mumbai Indians to five championships, or for the national side, which won the Nidhahas Trophy in 2018.
