Rohit Sharma has played all the editions of the T20 World Cup ever since the ICC tournament’s inception in 2007.
India’s 2024 T20 World Cup-winning captain admitted he is looking forward to the first-ever ICC Men’s T20 World Cup he won’t be a part of.
T20 World Cup Crisis – Live Updates
Speaking on JioHotstar’s ‘Captain Rohit Sharma’s Roadmap for T20 World Cup’, Rohit Sharma admitted that it will be a strange feeling for him to miss the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup for the first time in his career.
“We were talking about this at home, that it will be strange watching it from home, especially the T20 World Cup. From the time it started until now, I have been part of every World Cup, so it will feel different,” Rohit Shamra was quoted as saying on JioHotstar.
“When I watch the team playing T20 games, the feeling of missing out isn’t as much. But when you miss a World Cup, the reality really sinks in. That’s when you realise you’re not going to be part of it. So it will be a little weird. However, I will be somewhere in the stadium. It won’t be the same and it will be a different experience, but I’m actually looking forward to it. It will be quite amazing,” Rohit, who is only the second-ever Indian captain after MS Dhoni to win the T20 World Cup, added.
The Men’s T20 World Cup is scheduled to take place from February 7 to March 8 across venues in India and Sri Lanka, including Narendra Modi Stadium (Ahmedabad), MA Chidambaram Stadium (Chennai), Arun Jaitley Stadium (New Delhi), Wankhede Stadium (Mumbai), Eden Gardens (Kolkata), R. Premadasa Stadium (Colombo), Sinhalese Sports Club Cricket Ground (Colombo) and Pallekele International Cricket Stadium (Kandy).
