Rohit Sharma said on the thrilling win against Pakistan
We did not bat well. Halfway through our innings we were in good shape. We didn’t have the required partnership there and fell behind in the batting. We thus talked about the importance of every run on the pitch. There was a lot on the pitch (Rohit Sharma at the Nassau Stadium). Honestly, compared to the last game, this was a good wicket. With this kind of bowling lineup (Rohit Sharma on Team India bowling) you feel confident to work with.
While they were batting, we called everyone together and said if this can happen to us, it can happen to them too. Everyone’s little contribution can make a big difference. Bumrah (Rohit Sharma on Jasprit Bumrah) continues to get stronger. We all know what he can do. Won’t talk much about it. We want him to play with this mindset throughout the World Cup. He is a talented player, we all know that. The audience was amazing. (Rohit Sharma on audience) Wherever we play, they never disappoint. I am sure they will return home with big smiles. This is just the beginning, we still have a long way to go.
