“But again, everyone has their own problems deal with. I don’t know what the internal talks are, or what the internal discussions are in cricket South Africa. But In my perspective, I think it’s important that the priority and a lot of thought should be given to Test”, the Indian skipper added.
When asked if India, who are a giant of the sport, has more responsibility to promote the longest format of the game, the Rohit said that not just one or two but every nation should take the responsibility to protect it.
