'…I know suddenly I'll be a bad captain': Rohit Sharma aware of consequences if India's World Cup campaign falls apart

Hindustan Times  

Thursday, November 2, 2023 promises to be a significant date in Rohit Sharma's career. It was at this very stadium 12 years ago that India defeated Sri Lanka in the final to win the 2011 World Cup, a squad which Rohit missed being part of. Fast forward to today and under Rohit, India are just one win away from sealing a semi-final berth at the 2023 World Cup, and if they are able to get another win past Sri Lanka – their seventh consecutive victory in the tournament – it will mark another giant step in Rohit's little redemption story. When India failed to reach the final of last year's Asia Cup despite being the favourites or were knocked out by England in the semifinal of the 2022 T20 World Cup, fingers were pointed at Rohit, who due to unforeseen circumstances, was without key players such as Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja due to injuries. I try and do what is necessary from the team's perspective and be sure of that," the India captain said ahead of the World Cup match against Sri Lanka.
