Barbados: So, was India captain Rohit Sharma forced to quit T20Is? Captain Rohit announced his retirement from the shortest format after India won the T20 WC 2024. Following the win, Rohit said that he is extremely happy that the side won and also claimed that he did not think he would retire. He asserted that the situation is such that he had to.
“I didn’t think that I would retire from T20Is, but the situation was such… I thought it was the perfect situation for me. Nothing better than winning the cup and saying goodbye,” Indian skipper said.
Not long back, a report on Navbharat Times had claimed that to-be-coach Gautam Gambhir had laid down his requirements. He had demanded that he has the right to drop seniors like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Mohammed Shami and Ravindra Jadeja from the team if they did not perform in the 2025 Champions Trophy.
