"He isn't going to play for too long now"- Mohammad Kaif on Rohit Sharma ahead of 2024 T20 World Cup

Former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif recently opined that Rohit Sharma has entered the final phase of his international career along with Virat Kohli. He feels that the upcoming T20 World Cup might be the last chance for the duo to get their hands on the trophy after a heartbreaking loss last November.

Kaif said on Star Sports:

"Rohit Sharma knows he isn't going to play for too long now. Just two to three years more. Same with Virat Kohli. So this is the last chance for Rohit and Virat Kohli. They lost the World Cup final in Ahmedabad. They played as if they had the cup snatched away from them. Hearts were broken and fans were devastated."

Mohammad Kaif continued:

"India hardly have competition in the group stage. There are only two main matches - the semi-final and the final. Are you ready for those two days? That's the biggest test for Rohit."
