India’s Thrilling 2021 T20 World Cup Victory: A Fond Farewell to Sharma and a Step Towards Future Success

India’s victory in the Twenty20 World Cup against South Africa was a thrilling one, with star batter Rohit Sharma announcing his retirement from international T20 matches. In a press conference after the match, Sharma expressed that it was his last game in this format, marking the end of an illustrious career that saw him score 4231 runs in 159 matches for India, making him the highest scorer in the format.

Sharma started his India career playing T20 and mentioned that this was the perfect time to bid farewell to it after achieving such a significant victory. Despite Kohli’s struggles for form throughout the tournament, he played a crucial role in the final, scoring 76 runs off 59 balls and contributing to India’s win.

Sharma clarified that he would still be available to play test matches and one-day internationals for India, ensuring that he remains an integral part of the team in other formats. This victory marked India’s first major tournament success since hosting the ODI World Cup in 2011, ending a drought of near misses in various other tournaments.

Sharma expressed his emotions after achieving this long-awaited victory, stating that he was desperate for it and glad they were able to come out on top this time. The historic win brought joy and relief to Indian cricket fans and players alike, capping off an incredible journey in the T20 World Cup.
