Rohit Sharma updates profile picture after India's World Cup triumph
India spinner Kuldeep Yadav has dedicated the team's T20 World Cup triumph to captain Rohit Sharma. India defeated South Africa in the T20 World Cup final last week in Barbados, ending a long 11-year wait to lift an ICC trophy. Rohit led the team from the front, scoring 257 runs during the tournament. He scored a match-winning 92 against Australia, and followed it up with another half-century against England in the semi-finals. During a recent interaction, Kuldeep praised Rohit for "loving the team" and leading from the front.
“This World Cup was for him, the way he planned and the way he loved this team. The intent and approach that he used to talk about in team meetings, he implemented that in the tournament while batting, led from the front. So this trophy is for him," Kuldeep told Sports Today.
Kuldeep also praised Rohit, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja for their contributions to the team. The three veterans announced their T20I retirement after the final.
