At the crease, Rohit Sharma has long been renowned for his cool-headedness. Additionally, he provided unique insight into his batting mindset in a recent interview with Star Sports.

Rohit acknowledged the anxiety while discussing the mental strain of high-pressure games, particularly finals, but emphasized the significance of emotional restraint.

“Whenever I bat, I don't think of a target. Sometimes you underachieve when you put the target. Go and bat. Assess the situation. If you feel you can take it, take it on.

When we are playing these kinds of games, whether it's the final of the World Cup, of course, there are nerves. You know, you want to win, you want to play well, you want to perform. You know, the experience of playing for India for so many years, being there also helps. You can control your emotions, you can control your thoughts, and be in the moment,” Rohit Sharma said on Star Sports.

Now that he is left Test cricket, his statements have even greater weight. An era came to an end last month when Rohit declared his retirement from the longest format.
