Rohit Sharma, the captain of the Indian cricket team, has now shared the backstory behind his well-known “Koi Garden mein nahi ghoomega” line.
Finally, Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma shared the backstory of his well-known “Koi Garden mein nahi ghoomega” line. In February 2024, Rohit was heard on the stump mic urging his team to be more enthusiastic during the second Test match against England in Visakhapatnam. The famous Indian batsman has finally disclosed the reason behind the exchange, which has become synonymous with him over a year after the incident. According to Rohit, it was a crucial point in the game, and he wanted his players to give it their all on the pitch.It was in Vizag, and I noticed that the players were strolling idly, like though they were in a garden. The field was not in a state of urgency, and nobody was running. In the slip, I was fielding while spinners bowled from both ends. We had to win; the game was crucial, and it was hanging by a thread. In the morning, I had informed the guys that we needed to work harder, but they were enjoying themselves on the field,” Rohit posted on JioHotstar.Additionally, Rohit stated that he needed his players to be more active because India really needed a wicket at that point in the game. After winning the match by 106 runs, India tied the five-match series at one.
After watching it for two or three overs, I concluded that this was not how cricket should be played and that it could not continue. I was upset that everyone was just following the crowd, so I told them to stop. There was a collaboration going on, and I was itching to get out. In these situations, everyone must work together. I didn’t like how everyone was preoccupied with themselves at the time,” he continued.
