The Rohit Sharma-led aspect is about to tackle England and Netherlands in two warm-up suits forward of the mega tournament. It’ll be a fat alternative for Bharat to win an ICC identify then an opening of greater than 8 years. The endmost year Bharat gained an ICC trophy used to be long ago in 2013 – a Champions Trophy identify. Speaking about Global Cup, Bharat endmost gained the coveted trophy in 2011, within the ODI layout.
Forward of the beginning of Bharat’s marketing campaign in Cricket Global Cup 2023, former Bharat all-rounder Yuvraj Singh has recalled how mythical batter Sachin Tendulkar guided his teammates to secure themselves clear of distraction right through 2011 Global Cup.
“Now, distraction is a bit more because that time there was no social media. There was distraction with media and people. We were trying to focus on the game, and in the World Cup, we had lost to South Africa – a game we should have won. The media started to go berserk. Sachin (Tendulkar) sat down with the team and said, ‘We need to stop watching television, stop reading the papers. Use our headphones when we are going through crowds in airports. Just focus on the World Cup’. The team agreed, we just followed that and it really worked,” Yuvraj informed The Week.
“Because there’s anyway so much pressure. Problem with India is that, people think only Indian team will win. It’s a big World Cup, there are so many good teams out there, and we got to be really focussed on your tasks at hand” he added.
