We just need to focus on winning the series, says Rohit Sharma

XtraTime Web Desk: Indian cricket team’s vice-captain Rohit Sharma doesn’t want to think much about the World T20 right now and want to win the ongoing T20I series against West Indies in Mumbai on Wednesday.  The Men in Blue will face the two-time World T20 champions in series-deciding third match here even as the preparations to find the right combinations for the marquee event continues.

“See, I don’t want to keep saying that we are trying to build a squad for the (T20)World Cup. It is still a long-long way ahead. We just need to focus on winning the series and that will keep us in good state, moving forward,” Rohit said on Tuesday ahead of the series finale.

“If we keep winning games, keep doing the right things on the field, the composition of the team will take care (by itself),” Rohit added.

India won the first T20I by six wickets but suffered an eight-wicket defeat in the second T20I against West Indies. Sharma admitted that India made some mistakes in the second T20I and want to tighten up on those areas.

“In the last game, yes we made some mistakes on the field whether it was with the bat, ball and also on the field. So, we know where we lacked as a team and we just need to tighten up on those areas and make sure those mistakes are not repeated again,” Sharma said. The series-decider between India and West Indies will be played on December 11.
