Rohit Sharma: World Cup wins don’t come on platter, India ‘desperate’ to win it

The Hindu  

Skipper Rohit Sharma on Thursday said India is “desperate” to break its ICC trophy drought in the upcoming World Cup and is armed with “inner “confidence” and “self-belief” to win the title. “Last year also we did the same thing — the T20 World Cup was there, so we didn’t play one-day cricket. Difficult to have all players with vital experience Citing Varun Chakravarthy’s example from the 2021 T20 World Cup, Rohit said it is possible to have a player with less experience to make it into the side but emphasised on having the right balance. Even last year, before the T20 World Cup, we were focusing on those kinds of things.” Varun Chakravarthy of India in action during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup match against Scotland.
