Rohit Sharma called time on his T20I career after winning the T20 World Cup 2024 for India.
Rohit Sharma’s mother Purnima shared a heartwarming post for her son after he led the Indian team to the T20 World Cup 2024 title on June 29. Rohit Sharma and Co. defeated South Africa in the final on Barbados to win their second T20 world title.
Barely an hour after India won the T20 World Cup, captain Rohit Sharma confirmed that he had played his final match for the Asian powerhouse in the shortest format. Rohit joined match-winner Kohli in announcing his retirement from Twenty20 Internationals.
Kohli recaptured his best form in his final T20 World Cup match to assist Rohit and his team win the prestigious title in the Caribbean.
Rohit Sharma joined an elite list of players to win the T20 World Cup twice and his mother, Purnima Sharma, posted a sweet photo of the departing India captain.
The post had a photo of Rohit Sharma with Virat Kohli, while his daughter Samaira sat on Rohit’s shoulders.
"Daughter on his shoulders, nation on his back, brother on his side,” the caption on the photo read.
