‘Remember what I am saying’: Mohammad Kaif’s ‘2027 World Cup’ prediction for Rohit Sharma | Cricket News

3 min readMar 14, 2026 04:49 PM IST With India winning the 2026 T20 World Cup, the focus will now slowly shift to the longer white-ball format in which veterans Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are expected to play a crucial role. Rohit, who was closely involved with the 2026 T20 World Cup as the ICC’s brand ambassador for the tournament, retired from Test cricket as captain of the team after a disastrous tour of Australia last year. That left him active only in ODIs, having retired from T20Is after leading India to victory in the 2024 T20 World Cup, leading questions over his place in the team considering the dwindling number of 50-over matches that are being played in international cricket. However, Rohit answered those critics by returning to the international stage visibly leaner and with some consistent performances with the bat. Former India batsman Mohammad Kaif has said that Rohit has silenced all those who used to question his fitness and his physique and performances will be all that will be spoken of …

Rohit Sharma explains why his parents don’t come to the stadium for his games | Cricket News

Rohit Sharma’s wife and his daughter are often spotted in the stands during his games to egg him on. But the Indian captain’s parents have rarely ever been spotted in the stands watching their illustrious son playing for either Team India or for the Mumbai Indians franchise, which he has led to five IPL titles. In a recent interview, Rohit Sharma explained why his parents rarely ever make an appearance at his games. “Usually they prefer watching matches from home because they get too nervous at stadiums,” Rohit said in an interview with journalist Vimal Kumar. “They don’t like leaving the house too much.” Rohit Sharma revealed that despite their reluctance, there were two special occasions in his career where he had managed to persuade his parents to come to the ground. One of those two times was when he captained India for the first time against Sri Lanka at the Wankhede in 2017.

‘Milestone wala game nahi hai mera… Won’t change my game’

‘Milestone wala game nahi hai mera… Won’t change my game’

Rohit Sharma’s take-no-prisoners style of batting at the start of the innings in the T20 format has proven to be a high-risk, high-reward strategy in the powerplay overs. While it has led to Rohit getting out early in games, it has also yielded rich rewards when it clicks. Now, in an interview, Rohit has admitted that the strategy doesn’t always pay off, but added that he will not be tweaking his style of batting anytime soon. “Main game nahi change karoonga! (I won’t change my game!) The team has given me a role, I will continue playing that. Milestones wala game nahi hai mera (My game is not about chasing milestones). My focus is on contributing runs. Who doesn’t like making runs? I certainly do! I’ve been repeating this for years now. Pareshaan ho chuka hoon (I’m tired) repeating this same answer. Of course I get disappointed when the runs don’t come when you cannot contribute runs. You hurt when that happens. “But I don’t want to abandon my game. I know it’s very risky, …

Rohit Sharma’s hilarious reaction to Amit Mishra’s age: ‘What 40…you made debut when we were in nappies?’ | Ipl News

In the day and age of T20 cricket, with it’s many twists and turns, few things are as constant as the unfiltered version of Rohit Sharma during pre and post-match chats. Despite a defeat against Lucknow, in the midst of a poor season, the former MI skipper was at his blunt best during a chat with leg-spinner Amit Mishra in Lucknow on Tuesday. In a recently released video by the Lucknow Super Giants on the social media, Rohit is seen chatting with the LSG spinner about his age in his typical Mumbai idiolect. The matter of conjecture? Mishra’s age. “What 40? Mere se teen saal bade ho aap (You are three years elder to me),” Rohit is heard telling the leggie before the latter replies, “I’m 41.” Furthermore, the Indian skipper goes on to comically suggest, “You made debut when we were in our nappies? You made your debut then? When you were 20?” That ”Arre yaar” felt personal 😂 pic.twitter.com/oZ9nsYZao7 — Lucknow Super Giants (@LucknowIPL) May 1, 2024 To this, Mishra raises his hands before …
