We will keep our heads high and fight for the next championship - Rohit

[vvvslaxman]

Rohit Sharma: "It was a tough one. We started well winning the toss and putting them into bat in those conditions. We bowled pretty well in the first session and then we let ourselves down a little bit with how we bowled. But again, credit to the Australian batters, in particular, Travis Head came in and played really well. That took us off guard a little bit and then we knew it was always hard to come back. We put a up show. We fought hard but congratulations to Australia. We spoke of a lot of things. We spoke of bowling tighter lines. But it didn't work out. Things like that can happen. I thought it was a great fightback from Rahane and Shardul after being 5 down for 150. They stood up and put up a good partnership there and kept us in the game. We bowled pretty well in the second innings. Again we didn't apply ourselves with the bat. It was a good pitch to bat on. All five days the pitch behaved pretty well and we didn't capitalise. We've worked really hard for four years to make two finals. It's disappointment for us. We would like to go one better. But you cannot take anything away from what we've done in the two years. It's a great effort. A lot of players took part in those series. We'll keep our heads high and fight for the next championship as well."

How do you keep your head high when your head is in the wrong place?

Please no Rohit, Pujara, Kohli, Rahane for next series. I am willing to lose matches here and there but need to get fresh start. 

[ThirtyD.]

Haha. Loser mentality lives on. Before the match, Dravid also refused to acknowledge our poor record in ICC tournaments. So for those who are expecting a good performance in WC this year, should really get themselves recalibrated to reality as another disappointment await with these *tards at helm.

This interview is very much like IPL post match interviews. Zero accountability. That is the only practice India got from IPL. How to present interview after a loss.

Nice guys like Dravid should never be put in leadership roles.

 

They typically tend to have "Chalega re" attitude.

[maniac]

Tbh what else do you expect him to say?

[Bigg Brother]

We put a up show. We fought hard but congratulations to Australia.

 

Did he really say that? 

 

[Stan AF]

You aren't invited for the next one, Rohit. Take your useless pals along with you on the way out.

[kubrickian]

There is just no accountability in Indian cricket. You can keep losing one tournament after another, yet there is barely any change in the team. The same Kohli, Rohit, Rahane, Pujara, Rahul, Jadeja, Ashwin, Umesh etc. for the last 10 years as though these are the only 10-15 cricketers playing in whole country. Just utterly unbelievable, how Indian cricket got hijacked by these non performing, overrated clowns and yet this motu is shameless enough to say he is prepared to continue further, as though he has a god given right to play for Indian team.

Has any Indian captain/player in recent times apologised to the public/fans for losing poorly?

We must apologise for continuously expecting this shyte of a side to win anything in ICC events

Indian players are exceptional at spin they say , they are even more exceptional at dodging responsibility

it's gonna happen, I think

[Bublu Bhuyan]

Yes, keep your head high, and then choke one more time in the next WTC. I can't wait to see the back of Rohit, Pujara, Kohli, Rahane in Test cricket. Nothing good is going to come out of these parasites in Test cricket.

[Tillu]

One match is not enough, this guy wants to humiliate us further by playing three match series.

it would be nicer to get 0-3 loss. then, he will ask for 6 or 7 test series
