“You can’t show disappointment in injuries, you need to look forward to what we can do. We have backed our other boys and we are backing them. Hope they deliver. We wanted to come here early and acclimatise to the situation. By the time we play Pakistan, we will be prepared. We don’t believe in last-minute information, I don’t want to believe in telling someone at the last minute that you are playing,” Rohit said.

Virat Kohli & Rohit Sharma SKIP practice game: Virat Kohli might have skipped both practice matches against Western Australia but he is gearing up for the T20 World Cup by sweating it out in the nets. After the match, both Kohli and India captain Rohit Sharma went through the grind at the centre wicket of WACA.
Kohli yet again had an extended nets session. This time, he was seen timing the ball crisply. Kohli played a super-cut shot and turned the clock. The legendary batter is expected to play India’s other two other warm-up matches against Australia and New Zealand.
A hungry Kohli is always a danger sign for the opposition teams. By spending a quality amount of time in the nets, the 33-year-old is eager to show his form. The right-hand batter was seen in good form in the recently concluded T20 series against Australia. In the third T20I, he scored a well-made 60-plus score and guided the team’s run-chase.
