'Nothing Compares To It': Rohit Sharma On India-Pakistan Cricket Rivalry
Champions Waali Feeling Phir Se: The excitement and buzz surrounding the India-Pakistan clash is unmatched for cricket enthusiasts and players due to the fierce historic rivalry between the two nations. India skipper Rohit Sharma has been a part of many such matches and he admitted that the atmosphere before these fixtures is unmatched.
Recalling the T20 World Cup 2024 clash between them, Rohit said the pre-match environment was like a festival, starting from their hotel and extending to the stadium. India won the match by six runs in a low-scoring thriller as Jasprit Bumrah collected the figures of 3-14 to bag the Player of the Match accolade.
"Before the India vs Pakistan match, we were told there was a threat - something was going on. So, two days before the game, we weren’t allowed to step out of the hotel. The atmosphere started building from there. We were ordering food in, and the hotel was so packed you could barely walk. Fans, media - everyone was there. That’s when you realise this isn’t just another match - something special is about to happen.
