12 years ago when India lifted the 2011 World Cup trophy at the Wankhede Stadium, a young Rohit Sharma, aged 24 at that time, was watching from the comforts of his home after he was not picked up for the squad. He had expressed his disappointment with himself for not getting selected on Twitter, making the now famous tweet of “Sun will rise again tomorrow”.
A dozen years on, he led India in the World Cup 2023, also at home. He’s already won 5 IPL titles as captain and two Asia Cup trophies for India. His eye is now on the biggest prize of all: an ODI World Cup trophy, and fulfilling the dreams of 1.5 billion people.
Rohit Sharma has come a long way in the past dozen years, most notably being hailed as one of the greatest-ever ODI openers and arguably the best ODI opener of his generation. Through his stunning batting shows, he’s earned the nickname of ‘Hitman’.
