New Delhi. The whole country is proud of Team India becoming the world champion in T20. World champions are being discussed everywhere. India won the T20 World Cup under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. Team India has got this trophy after 17 years. Indian team’s bowling coach Paras Mhabre says that like every team, our dream was to win the World Cup. At the same time, Mhabre expressed surprise that he too did not know till the last moment that Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja would say goodbye to T20 International cricket.
In an exclusive conversation with AnyTV India, Paras Mhambrey said that when we lost the ODI World Cup final against Australia last year, we were very sad. Mhambrey said, ‘Everyone was sad when we lost the ODI World Cup final to Australia in Ahmedabad. But we have made a tremendous comeback within 6 months. Every moment in the T20 World Cup final match was important for us. There was a time when it seemed that this match might slip out of our hands. Everyone’s heartbeat was increasing. But we have to praise Hardik Pandya, Arshdeep Singh and Suryakumar Yadav. Who showed excellent game at crucial moments.’

‘I will never forget that catch of Surya for the rest of my life’
Paras Mhabre said that Surya’s catch will be remembered for a lifetime. South Africa needs 16 runs to win in the last over. In this over, Hardik Pandya gave a big success to the team by getting David Miller caught by Suryakumar Yadav near the boundary. After the World Cup, Rohit, Virat and Jadeja decided to retire from this format. Mhabre says that he too did not anticipate this.
‘We have rising stars’
According to Paras Mhabre, ‘I also did not know till the last moment that Virat Kohli and the other 2 players would say goodbye to T20. Now we have to make a new team for T20. We have many new rising stars. I hope that Team India will be successful in repeating this great performance in the future as well.’
