Rohit Sharma shares the secret of India’s success

He added that India’s success depends not just on their skill – but also how much they are enjoying their cricket.

After leading his side to victory in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, he spoke to the media and revealed some of the principles that have underscored an incredible run of success in ICC tournaments – including the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup last year.

“It shows a lot of quality in the team, a lot of depth, a lot of understanding within the group, a lot of enjoyment, a lot of excitement,” he said. “That is how we want to play our cricket. There is too much pressure from the outside…there is so much speculation that happens.

“The boys in the team have managed to put that aside and just focus on how to win games and how to enjoy the game.”

He added: “I’m really, really proud being the captain of this team…to play the finals of all four trophies was really good and shows how consistent we are as a team.”
