Legendary Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar on Sunday extended his congratulations to star batting pair of Men in Blue, skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who concluded their T20I career on a high with a T20 World Cup title win against South Africa.
Rohit’s leadership skills in the tournament, fine rotation of bowlers and Virat’s ability to overcome a lean patch and deliver when it mattered the most helped Men in Blue in in ending their 11-year-long ICC trophy drought.
Both also announced their retirement from the short format after winning the trophy. Taking to X, Sachin said about Rohit that he witnessed his evolution from a promising youngster to a World Cup winning skipper and winning the trophy serves as a perfect conclusion to his T20I career.
About Virat, Sachin wrote that he is a champion of the sport and the way he overcame his lean patch in the tournament, in which he scored just 75 runs in seven innings, showcases exactly why he is one of the greats of the sport.
‘ENDING ON A HIGH @ImRo45, I’ve witnessed your evolution from a promising youngster to a World Cup-winning captain from close quarters. Your unwavering commitment & exceptional talent have brought immense pride to the nation. Leading to a T20 World Cup victory is the perfect culmination of your stellar career. Well done, Rohit!
