I Am Certainly Keeping My Phone Off: Rohit Sharma

“Everyone and all the guys who have not been retained will be glued to the TV, watching what is happening. I am certainly keeping my phone off” said Rohit when asked about Team India’s plans for the bidding event.

A total of 600 players will go under the hammer in the mega auction. The list was increased after BCCI added 10 U-19 players to the list.

Meanwhile, one of the key takeaways from Rohit Sharma’s post-match press conference after the third ODI was his comments on Virat Kohli. Kohli had a forgetful series against the Windies scoring just 26 runs in the series including a duck in the third and final ODI.

“The noise will be around as long as we are playing. We know we are playing a high-profile sport in India and people look up to us and watch us. As players and individuals, we know what we need to focus on. The outside noise doesn’t bother the dressing room. As long as we can come out and do what we are expected to do, that is very important” said Rohit.
