Rohit Sharma: In the T20 World Cup 2024, Team India defeated South Africa by 7 runs and captured the T20 World Cup trophy. Team India has created history by winning the T20 World Cup. The victory under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma is going to be very memorable.

After becoming the champion in the T20 World Cup, Rohit Sharma could not hold back his emotions and he praised the team a lot. Let's know what Rohit Sharma said in the post-match presentation after becoming the champion in the T20 World Cup.

This victory is very memorable – Rohit Sharma

Team India captain Rohit Sharma said after the win, “It is very difficult to summarise what we have gone through in the last 3-4 years.

To be honest, we have worked very hard as a player and as a team. A lot has been done behind the scenes to reach here today and win this game. It is not what we did today.

This is what we have been doing for the last 3-4 years. The result of that has come to us today. We have played many high-pressure games before and have been on the wrong side as well. But people understand what needs to be done. Today was a perfect example of what is required when the back is against the wall. We as a team and we all stuck together. Even when at one point it looked like it was going South Africa's way."

Virat is great – Rohit

Rohit Sharma also praised Virat Kohli, who played an innings of 76 runs in the final match, and said, "I think we were brilliant. Neither I nor anyone else had any doubts about Virat Kohli's form. We know how much quality he has. He has been at the top of his game for 15 years. Big players will stand up when the opportunity comes. Virat held one end which was very important for us and the rest were playing around him.

For us, it was a team effort to reach that target. We wanted someone to bat for as long as possible. These are not wickets where you can come and bat freely and keep the scoreboard moving straightaway.

So we understand that. We wanted someone to bat for as long as possible and Virat did that very well. That's where Virat's experience comes in."

I am proud of my team – Indian captain

Team India captain Rohit Sharma praised all the players of Team India and said, "I am very proud of the boys. Absolutely fantastic, from New York to Barbados, I just want to salute them. Come and support us the way they have done and even back home in India, millions of people are sitting and watching. It's late night in India, I'm sure they're watching it. They have been waiting for a long time just like us. This is for them. Very proud of what we have achieved today."
