Team India skipper Rohit Sharma settled the speculation around his future with the Indian team in the pre-match press conference in Nagpur on Wednesday.
India was seen to be very dominating against England in the T20I series as the Men in Blue won the series by 4-1. Now the Rohit Sharma led team will be playing ODI series starting from February 6. In the press conference Rohit Sharma was under scrutiny for his poor form since the season started and when asked about his future he said its not relevant to talk about it.
Rohit Sharma’s Future Plans
“How is it relevant that I talk about my future plans when there are three ODIs and Champions Trophy. The reports (on my future) are going on for a number of years, and I am not here to clarify those reports,” Rohit said
“For me, the three games (scheduled against England) and the Champions Trophy are very important. My focus is on these games and I will see what happens thereafter” Rohit added
Rohit Sharma On His Poor Form
Rohit Sharma also highlighted on his poor form and mentioned that he was concerned about the future and nothing that has happened in the past.
“This is a different format, different time. As cricketers, there will be ups and downs and I have faced those a lot in my career. This is nothing new to me. We know everyday is a fresh day, every series is a fresh series, said Rohit.
“I am looking forward to the challenge, not looking at what has happened in the past. There is no reason for me to look behind too much. It’s important that I focus on what is coming up and what lies ahead for me. Look to try and start this series on a high,” he added.
