His historic triumph in the T20 World Cup, where India claimed their second title by beating South Africa in a thrilling final by seven runs, has become a cherished moment for cricket lovers. Rohit’s efforts were widely celebrated, and the victory parade being recreated during Ganesh Chaturthi further emphasized the significance of the achievement.

Rohit Sharma has also recently returned to ODI cricket, competing in India’s bilateral series against Sri Lanka.

Still, fans remain hopeful as the team prepares for future challenges under Rohit's leadership.
