Rohit Sharma remembered Rahul Dravid
After India won the Champions Trophy 2025, captain Rohit Sharma remembered former head coach Rahul Dravid and said,
“It is great. We played great cricket throughout the tournament. The result went in our favour, which is a great feeling. I am very happy with the way we played this game. It is not natural for me, but it is something I really wanted to do. When you are trying to do something different you need the support of the team and they were with me. In the 2023 World Cup with Rahul bhai and now with Gauti bhai. I have played in a different style all these years.”
Said this for Gautam Gambhir
Rohit Sharma said that Gautam Gambhir got a lot of support from him in the tournament, which made him successful in becoming the team champion. Hitman said that,
“I wanted to see if we could get results by playing differently. After playing here a few times, you understand the nature of the pitch. Using the feet is something I have been doing for some time now. I have also got out in it. But I never wanted to back out of it. It makes it easier and gives you that freedom. So I was trying to find depth in the batting. Jadeja coming in at number 8 gives you the confidence to go ahead and play. As long as I am clear in my mind, it is great.”
