The Indian cricket team might be a powerhouse in world cricket but its inability to go the distance in ICC events is hurting even the most ardent of fanbases. As the Indian team begins a new cycle of the WTC with a 2-match series against WI, skipper Rohit Sharma was asked to pick that ‘one thing’ that he feels the team has been missing.

Rohit said in a press conference on the eve of the first Test against WI –

“Firstly, I want everyone to be available. All my players, I want them to be available 100 percent. I don’t want any injury concerns. That’s first and foremost.”

In the WTC final against Australia, India missed the services of Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant, Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul, all because of injuries. If India are to win the next WTC final, Rohit feels the availability of such star players is very important.

Rohit added – “I feel that as long as you keep ticking the boxes, keep playing good cricket, things will fall into place. Overall the years, we have done a lot of good things. It’s just that sometimes you want luck to be on your side as well.

“Over the last five-six years, we have probably won everywhere, but yes, winning championships are important as well. Until we get that championship, we are going to keep fighting hard for it.
