We are working hard to achieve something – Rohit Sharma
Will this Test series win act as a salve for the defeat in the World Cup final? Rohit reacted to this question while talking to the press and said, “I don’t know if a Test series win in South Africa will help the world. A cup final defeat may or may not be a cure. The World Cup is the World Cup. We have worked hard, we should get some results. We all want this.” India’s World Cup hero Mohammed Shami will miss the series due to an ankle injury and Rohit termed the pacer’s absence as a loss for the team.
He said, “Looking at what Shami has done for us over the years, he will be sorely missed. Someone has to replace him but it won’t be easy. But we are full of confidence” (with language)
