Rohit Sharma was entitled to the Farewell Test, former cricketer is surprised by the peculiar retirement of ‘Hitman’
He said that after working for three years with Rahul Bhai, I could understand what kind of human beings are. Earlier we did not work together while staying so close. When he used to play, there was not much talk between us because his entire focus was on his batting. So then there was little chance of talking to him. But now I had a chance to understand their thinking process. His name in Indian cricket is among the top players and he is fully entitled to it. But for me he was like he presented himself to us. And this has inspired me a lot ‘
For some time, Rohit had selflessly batting for Team India in a very aggressive manner. All his veterans were praised for this. Rohit said that with the support of Dravid, he could bat like this.

Whatever you are doing, I think why you are doing this. This is your team and I am here to support you. I will give you challenges, I will question you, but this is your team. Lead the team as you want.
