00:00Uh, look, this retirement decision is very personal.
00:04There are many difficulties in this decision.
00:08Because you are a world star, you are up and down,
00:12and you are so busy.
00:14So you have a little difficulty in this decision.
00:22But Rohit, which we know,
00:24can be a decision.
00:28Because he has been captain for the Indian team,
00:30and he has taken some very, very good decisions.
00:33And Rohit has done a lot of entertainment.
00:37Rohit is a backsporn, I have not seen.
00:39If there was a backsporn in the Indian team,
00:41then my favourite was Rohit Sharma.
00:44He could not do any cut-and-poll and hook.
00:47So he has, and Bhara,
00:50the un-gunned matches,
00:53which is the biggest contribution of them.
00:55You know,
00:56you know,
00:57that's the world cup.
00:58So,
00:59this is always Rohit Sharma.
01:00You know,
01:02the cricket child,
01:03that's the 50-year-old.
01:04But,
01:06it's been a land.
01:08But,
01:09the two of them are the best of England.
01:11In England,
01:12the best of England is tough.
01:13And Australia wasn't good at home.
01:15The World Cup,
01:16it's not good.
01:17We all have to be rid of the players.
01:19Because we all have to be rid of them.
01:21Because,
01:22we all have to be rid of them.
01:23This is the best of England.
01:24The worst of England has been good.
01:25In Australia,
01:26the best of England has got to be good.
01:28foreign
01:56He was a new captain. Boomera was a captain in Australia, then after the first test, then after the last test, and then Shuman Gil could be the deputy, the vice captain.
02:08So the new captain we can see and Boomera was a vice captain.
02:11No, we need to get a chance, Boomera. Look, he has done a captain and he has been doing very well.
02:18He is a permanent member of the team, so I should say that you should get him.
02:26But you have a good yuak-ladi, which you can become a vice captain.
02:32Sir, one last question.
02:34Can you ask how much you have done with the armed forces?
02:40I always say that our real heroes are the armed forces.
02:46Because there are many cricketers, heroes, and heroes are very good.
02:54But the real heroes are our goals.
