Coming into the world cup we have addressed all these issues. Coming into World Cup we think we can achieve what we want to.” “Pakistan outplayed us in the 2021 World Cup because they played better and in Asia Cup they beat us and we beat them in a match before.

Luckily we played them twice in Asia Cup to gauge them,” said the star batter. The Indian opener also talked about Jasprit Bumrah’s replacement in the squad Mohammad Shami before the important clash citing the experience of Shami as a crucial reason for adding him to the squad.

“Shami has so much experience. When Bumrah was injured we wanted to have someone experienced. We know he is very good with the new ball. We wanted to give him an old ball and throw a challenge at him. He is very much ready,” stated Rohit about the pace bowler.

That is something we prepare for going on tours. Be it South Africa New Zealand, or Australia. Before the World Cup, we wanted to go there early. We know how important it is for World Cup. Just to get used to the conditions. We stayed in Perth for nine days and played two practice matches in Brisbane,” shared the Indian opener on the team flying to Perth before the commencement of the marquee event.
