The victory against South Africa in the T20 World Cup final, according to Indian skipper Rohit Sharma, was his final game of the competition. In the news conference following the game, Rohit reaffirmed this.

There’s no better way to say farewell to this format than with this, as it’s my final game. I have enjoyed every second of it. My first objective was to win the World Cup when I started representing India in this manner, Rohit said.

Rohit described his feelings after India won its first ICC tournament in eleven years, stating, “I am completely lost and can’t say what kind of emotions I am going through.” unable to express it in words. Think about this for a moment. Last night I couldn’t sleep, I was so nervous and wanted it so much. Still, I kept my self-control under wraps.

The 37-year-old, along with MS Dhoni (2007 and 2011) and Kapil Dev (1983), is the only other Indian skipper to have won a World Cup in any format.

The Indian captain has now guided his side to 50 Twenty20 international games, creating leadership history in this area. In the World Cup final, the 50th triumph came against South Africa.
