India captain Rohit Sharma recently featured in a lighthearted Dream11 advertisement, where he amusingly forgets India's 2024 T20 World Cup triumph while discussing the team's goals for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy.

The ad, which also stars Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul, plays on Rohit's well-known tendency to mix up words and events during interviews, a trait often teased by teammates and fans alike.

In the commercial, Rohit, Pant, and Rahul appear in an interview with popular sports presenter Gaurav Kapur. As they talk about India's preparations for the Champions Trophy, Rohit casually states their ambitions without acknowledging their reigning champion status. Pant and Rahul also follow suit, seemingly unaware of their historic victory. Enter Virat Kohli, who steps in to clarify Rohit's statement, humorously explaining that India will approach the tournament with a fresh mindset, aiming for new glory rather than dwelling on past achievements.
