New Delhi. India’s World Cup entry squad has been selected. The 15-member squad for the ICC ODI World Cup was announced by chief selector Ajit Agarkar on Tuesday, September 5. Team captain Rohit Sharma was also present on this occasion. After the announcement of the team, the captain answered questions from the media. A question angered him and he started a reporter’s class.
Rohit Sharma got angry while questioning the match between India and Pakistan. He replied, “I have said this many times. We don’t pay attention to what is going on outside. All the players in our team are professional. Don’t ask me such questions. I am not interested in hearing such questions. There is no point in talking like that. All our attention is on something else and we don’t pay attention to such things at all.
He further said, “There is no pressure whatsoever regarding the World Cup. We will just enter this tournament and perform to the best of our ability. We need to add depth to the batting. In this the role of number 8 and 9 becomes very important. In the last few matches, we have been left behind by not being able to score runs from the lower order. His job is not only to take wickets of the opposing team but also to contribute to the team in batting. Sometimes just 10 to 15 runs make the difference between winning and losing a match.
