Former Indian skipper Rohit Sharma has shared his thoughts about playing in the 2027 ODI World Cup, which is scheduled to be held in South Africa. He said winning the tournament remains one of his biggest goals.
When asked if the World Cup would be his main focus in the coming months, Rohit Sharma responded positively. He said he wants to represent India and win the trophy for the country.
Rohit Sharma said, “Yeah, look, I definitely want to go out there and win the World Cup for my country. That is something that I’ve always looked upon. I’ve grown up watching this 50-over World Cup.”
He added that the tournament has always been the pinnacle of cricket for him. Rohit Sharma said the four year wait for the trophy makes it even more special and meaningful for players and fans.
His emotional statement received strong support from fans on social media. Many people praised his dedication and commitment, especially after noticing his fitness transformation and weight loss in recent months.
At the same time, some fans are concerned about whether team management will include him in the squad. These concerns come after Rohit Sharma’s unexpected retirement from Test cricket.
Rohit Sharma had earlier expressed interest in playing the Test series against England. However, his retirement from the format disappointed many fans who were looking forward to seeing him in action.
With Rohit Sharma appearing confident and in good form, supporters believe he still has an important role to play. Many are now waiting to watch his performance in the ODI series against England next year.
