‘Everyone wants to make a difference’ - Rohit Sharma on India’s Super Eight preparation

India have been in exceptional form in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024. The Men in Blue were drawn in Group A and topped the group after winning three out of the four games that they played. It is worth noting that the fourth game was washed out and abandoned. 

Ahead of the Super Eight stage of the tournament, India’s skipper Rohit Sharma revealed how the team is preparing for the upcoming games of the T20 World Cup 2024. 

Rohit revealed that everyone who is a part of India’s squad wants to make a difference and there is something to achieve for everyone in each of the practice sessions that the Men in Blue undergo.

"There is real keen-ness in the group to go and do something special. It clearly shows that everyone wants to make a difference and we take our skill sessions quite seriously. There is something to achieve in every skill session that you do. Once we play the first game, we are going to play the next two in 3-4 days. It is going to be a little hectic but we are used to all of this. We travel and play a lot so that is not going to be an excuse," Rohit Sharma said in a video uploaded by the BCCI.

Everyone understands what they need to do: Rohit Sharma

Furthermore, Rohit Sharma expressed that there is a natural understanding between all the team members who are working towards progressing further in the T20 World Cup 2024. 

"We will look to focus on our skill and what we need to do as a team. We have played a lot of games here. Everyone understands what they need to do. Everyone is looking forward and are excited at the same time," Rohit said.

In their first game of the Super Eight, India will take on Afghanistan at the Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, Barbados on Thursday, June 20.
