India skipper Rohit Sharma has called on his team to move on from the excitement of their T20 World Cup win and focus on the season ahead. With Gautam Gambhir now leading the side as head coach, Sharma is looking forward to a series of challenging matches, starting with the ongoing white ball series against Sri Lanka.

Sharma emphasized the importance of continuous growth and maintaining high standards in cricket. Despite the joy of the World Cup win, he stressed the need to think about future games, like the upcoming Champions Trophy. Post his T20I retirement, Sharma remains determined to guide his team towards new achievements.

In his statements, Sharma acknowledged the differences in coaching styles, noting Gambhir's experience and clear vision for the team. He aims to focus on immediate goals without planning too far ahead, hoping to extract valuable lessons from each game. Despite embracing innovative strategies, Sharma insists the team's primary goal remains winning the ODI series against Sri Lanka.
