T20 World Cup Final: Team India created history in the final of the T20 World Cup. In the final match, Team India defeated South Africa by 7 runs and with this its legendary captain Rohit Sharma also announced his retirement. Earlier, Virat Kohli has also announced his retirement from T20 International. After winning the title against South Africa, Rohit Sharma announced in front of everyone that he will no longer play in the T20 format of Team India. Before Rohit, legendary batsman Virat Kohli has also said goodbye to the T20 format.

Debut from T20 World Cup, retirement from World Cup itself

Rohit made his debut for Team India in this format in the 2007 T20 World Cup and then played an important role in making India the champion in the first event itself. Now in his 9th T20 World Cup, Rohit, while captaining, got Team India the same title for the second time after 17 years and with the final of this tournament, said goodbye to the format forever.

After Team India's title win, Rohit Sharma made this announcement in the press conference. He said that this was his last T20 match for Team India and there could not have been a better time and way to retire than this. The Indian captain said that he was very impatient to win this tournament and finally he was able to cross the hurdle, which was stuck for the last 10 years.

Performance was excellent in this World Cup

Rohit not only made Team India the champion under his captaincy, but also played an important role in it with his explosive batting. Even though he got out after scoring just 9 runs in the final of the tournament, the Indian captain had earlier scored explosive half-centuries against England in the semi-finals and before that against Australia in the last match of Super-8. Rohit scored the most 257 runs for India in 8 innings of the entire World Cup, which included 3 half-centuries.

Ended career with the most runs and sixes

Rohit's journey in this format was excellent. He ended his career as the batsman with the most runs, most centuries and most sixes in T20 Internationals. Rohit also played the most 159 matches for India and scored a record 4231 runs at an average of 32. His strike rate was 140.89, which includes 5 centuries and a record 305 sixes. Not only this, after Virat Kohli, Rohit is also the second highest run scorer in the history of T20 World Cup with 1220 runs. Along with this, with the victory in the final, he also registered a record 50 wins for Team India in T20 Internationals.
