From Eating Pitch Sand To Post-Final Celebrations: Rohit Sharma Shares Inside Details

Indian skipper Rohit Sharma opened up on the Men in Blue's second ICC T20 World Cup title win, saying that the feeling has not sunk in completely and he wants to live each and every moment to the fullest. A fine exhibition of death bowling by the trio of Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya and stupendous knocks by Virat Kohli and Axar Patel helped India end their ICC trophy drought, securing their second ICC T20 World Cup title by beating first-time finalists South Africa by seven runs in a thrilling final at Barbados on Saturday.

In a video posted by the Board of Control for Cricket of India (BCCI), Rohit said that the feeling of winning the tournament is surreal and it still feels like a dream, since the team had worked for it since a long time.

"Yeah, the feeling actually is surreal. I would still say it has not sunk in totally. It has been a great moment. Right from when the game got over till now, it feels like a dream. We still feel that it has not happened. Although it has happened, but it feels like it has not happened. That is the emotion, that's the feeling that you have. We have dreamt about this for such a long period of time. We worked hard as a unit for such a long period of time and to see this now with us feels quite, you know, relieved as well because when you work hard for something and you eventually get it at the end, it feels nice. Last night, I mean, We were having a good time," said Rohit.
