Rohit Sharma, known for his cool and composed demeanor, has opened up about the advantage of playing in home conditions during an event where captains of participating teams answered


questions ahead of the tournament opener. The Mumbai-born cricketer emphasized the importance of maintaining focus amidst the expectations and pressure that come with playing on home turf.


"I know what's at stake here. Not thinking much about it (pressure). The players who are part of the team also know it. For us now, we need to keep everything aside and focus on what we want


to achieve as a team," Rohit Sharma stated during the captains' round table.


India's cricket-crazy fans have high hopes for their team, and the weight of those expectations can be substantial. However, Rohit's message to his team is clear: "Do not worry about


expectations because that's always going to be there. Do not worry about opponents and not worry about what's happening elsewhere. It is time now for us to be secluded and focus on what we


want to do as a team."
