TIL Desk Sports/ Rohit Sharma is having the time of his life. On field, India’s white-ball vice-captain enjoyed a phenomenal 2019 — he scored a record 2,442 runs as an opener across three formats and more importantly took up the challenge of being a Test opener with stupendous success. Off it, family has put him in a ‘great space’.
“I am a different Rohit in terms of how I think. I am in such a great space in my life because of the family that I have — my wife (Ritika) and daughter (Samaira). I am not worried about what others are talking,” Rohit told in an exclusive interview as he looks back at the 12 eventful years of his career in international cricket.
For someone, who has received bouquets and brickbats in equal measure, the 32-year-old is no longer bothered by criticism.”They (wife and daughter) fill me with love and happiness and I try to stay within that rather than think about X, Y or Z making comments about me,” he said.
