It has been more than two weeks since India won the T20 World Cup trophy but the celebrations are far from over as players are still receiving grand welcome from fans as seen for Hardik Pandya, who recently returned to his hometown in Vadodara and did a roadshow attended by thousands.
In the T20 World Cup final, India beat South Africa to end their ICC trophy drought. However, the Men in Blue were on the brink of another defeat in the final as the Proteas once required 27 to win off 28 balls with six wickets in hand.
India pulled off a victory out of the jaws of defeat as they defended the total and won the game by 7 runs in the final.
In the latest events, India skipper Rohit Sharma, who is in the USA, spoke about his mindset when South Africa were cruising towards a win and stated that he went completely blank.
"I don't look too far ahead. It's very important for me to stay in the moment and focus on the job at hand. It was very important for all of us to stay calm and try to execute our plans. When we were under immense pressure when South Africa needed 30 runs off 30 balls, the five overs that we bowled showed how calm we were. I Went Co We just focussed on our job, not thinking much about anything else. We didn't panic that was very good from our side," he said.
