India went on to clean sweep the 3-match ODI series against England in Ahmedabad. After a stellar knock from Shubman Gill, India scored 356 runs in the first innings. England on the other hand had the opportunity to beat India and avoid a whitewash. However, like always, the batting line up was dismantled by the Indian bowlers. Speaking about the series in the presentation, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma seemed elated and praised the team for an overall effort.
"I don't see there was anything wrong we did this series. Obviously there are certain things we are looking at (to improve) and I am not going to stand here and explain those. It is our job as well to keep some consistency within the squad and the communication is clear. Obviously any champion team wants to get better every game and move forward from there.
It was an important series for India before the start of the Champions Trophy 2025. The prime players are in form which is a great news for the management and the fans. However, India will surely miss the valuable contributions of Jasprit Bumrah in the tournament. He is going to miss the series due to back injury. Harshit Rana is set to replace the best bowler in India and Varun Chakaravarty is in for Yashasvi Jaiswal.
Very happy with the score: Rohit Sharma
Rohit Sharma continued to praise the team for their efforts and spoke about the positives that they have taken throughout the year. The Indian captain is surely looking forward to the challenges he'll be facing during he Champions Trophy.
"Very happy with the score. There is a bit of freedom in the squad to go out there and play the way you want. The World Cup was a perfect example of that and we want to continue to do that. There will be times it will not fall in place but that's okay," added Rohit.
