"First Time In 15 Years...": Virat Kohli's Heartwarming Revelation About Rohit Sharma
He had never seen "an emotional" Rohit Sharma in their decade and a half old association till the Indian captain hugged him with welled up eyes after the T20 World Cup triumph, Virat Kohli revealed to a packed Wankhede audience during the team's felicitation ceremony on Thursday. "This is the first time in 15 years that I have seen Rohit show so much emotion. When we were climbing those steps (at Kensington Oval) he was crying and I was crying," Kohli said during the ceremony after a memorable open bus victory parade. On this very ground, a 21-year-old Kohli had said that it was only fair to carry the maestro Sachin Tendulkar on their shoulders after he carried the burden of Indian cricket for 21 years. Now at 35, standing on the same hallowed turf, Kohli, who announced his retirement from the shortest format after the trophy was sealed last week, "hoped" that he and his skipper had done well enough to carry the burden for 15 years and bring the 'Cup' home.
