Delhi: Indian team captain Rohit Sharma In the Indian Premier League (IPL), Mumbai Indians (Mi) and India are seen as a legendary captain since winning the T20 World Cup 2024. Rohit himself has talked about how important it is to win the trophy many times. Now he has made it clear once again that the victory and trophy of the team matters the most, not the competition or a run of runs. He said that if a player also scored 600 or 700 runs in the entire tournament, but the team does not win the trophy, then these runs would not be of any use.
Remember 2019 World Cup
Rohit mentioned the 2019 World Cup in one of his interviews, where he scored 648 runs with five centuries and a half -century. Despite this, India lost to New Zealand in the semi -finals.
He said, “I learned this from the 2019 World Cup. If you do not reach the finals and do not win the trophy, what will I do for those 500-600 runs? That run can be good for me, but not of any work of the team.”
Rohit also told that the purpose of his career has never been that how many runs he has to score every season. His focus has always been on the victory of the team.
Gave the example of Mumbai Indians
Giving the example of Mumbai Indians, the Indian captain said, “Whenever Mumbai Indians have won the trophy, no player of our team has won the Orange Cap (the most scorer). There is one reason for this. This means that the entire team has contributed together and not a single player on his own.”
Rohit said, “I am not saying that my 30 runs win the match. But, I focus on how much my contribution makes my contribution impact in the team’s victory. Earlier I used to think that runs are to be scored, but now I think that the team has to win how to win.”
Significantly, under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, Mumbai Indians named the IPL Trophy five times. However, since IPL 2024, the captaincy of the team is with Hardik Pandya.
