Morning After Stunning Coup, Rohit Sharma Wakes Up With T20 WC Trophy On Bedside

Mumbai: They say a picture says a thousand words.

There were numerous such unforgettable moments at Bridgetown’s Kensington Oval on Saturday after Team India broke a 13-year drought for a World Cup title.

Rohit Sharma presented another million-dollar frame on Sunday morning (Caribbean time) as he woke up in his hotel with the World Cup trophy on his bedside.

The Team India skipper shared a photo of him on the bed with the coveted prize beside him.

“Morning everybody,” he captioned the post.

Rohit was desperate to lift the T20 World Cup, having suffered agonising defeats in the finals of ODI World Cup and World Test Championship last year.

He and Virat Kohli chose the uplifting moment to announce their retirement from T20 Internationals.

The 37-year-old Rohit not only bowed out of the shortest format as a two-time T20 World Cup winner – both as captain and team member – but also as the all-time leading run-getter in this format.

In 159 T20 Internationals, Rohit scored 4,231 runs with a record 5 centuries as well as 32 fifties at a strike rate of 140.89. He also hit an unmatched 205 sixes.
