Rohit said in a video posted on ‘bcci.tv’, ‘If the players can keep themselves calm and restrained during the match, then we will get the results we want. It’s been so many days since the World Cup was won. Our aim and thinking process is to win the World Cup, but we also know that we need to do a lot of things right to get there. So it will be important for us to do one thing at a time and focus on each team that we will fight against and also that we don’t think about the semi-finals or the finals.
The 2022 T20 World Cup is Rohit’s first ICC tournament as a captain. In the last T20 World Cup 12 months ago, the team was led by Virat Kohli. Rohit said, ‘It is a great honor to captain the team. This is my first World Cup as a captain so I am very excited about it. It is a great opportunity to come here and do something special.
India will begin their campaign against Pakistan on 23 October in Melbourne. The Indian captain said, “It is a big match in the beginning, but we will be ‘relax’ and will focus on what we need to do as players. This will be important for us.
