Rohit Sharma is not a person who likes to hog the limelight. He is generous to the core and has no qualms over giving credit to his fellow players, even when he has the world at his feet. That’s the type of personality he comes across time and again, and it was no different when Team India won the Champions Trophy on Sunday night. At the post-match media conference, he acknowledged the contribution of each player, saying that it was a team effort all the way, with almost all players contributing in one match or the other. More importantly, he said that the current team would like to play the same brand of cricket going forward. 

Not one to beat about the bush, he also made a brief statement at the end: “One more thing, I am not going to retire from this format. [I am clarifying] just to make sure no rumours are spread moving forward. OK guys, thank you so much.”
