Rohit Sharma's Clarification: Rohit Sharma clarified missing the catch of Zakir Ali..

The Indian team made a great start to their campaign in the Champions Trophy by defeating Bangladesh by six wickets. In the match played at the Dubai International Stadium, Team India achieved the target with 21 balls to spare. During this, vice-captain Shubman Gill scored the eighth century of his ODI career and Mohammed Shami took five wickets. After the match, Indian captain Rohit Sharma talked about the team's performance and poor fielding.

Rohit expressed disappointment over poor fielding.

Actually, in the ninth over of Bangladesh's innings, left-arm spinner Akshar Patel had a chance to take a hat-trick. He had prepared a complete strategy to hunt Zakir Ali on the fourth ball, but he missed it due to a mistake by Rohit Sharma. Talking about this, Hitman said - It was an easy catch, according to the level I have set for myself, I should have caught that catch.

Captain happy with the performance of Gill and Shami

India won the match with Gill's innings of 101 runs and brilliant bowling by Mohammed Shami (five wickets). Rohit said after the match- You have to be full of confidence before every match. You have to be prepared for every situation during the match. As a team, I think we have adapted ourselves well to the circumstances.

Talking about the ups and downs during the match, he said- There is always pressure in a tournament of this level, but experience comes in handy in such situations. Shami comes in handy to us in every situation. I thought you would talk about the dropped catch, but the way Gill batted was amazing.

I am very happy - Shubman Gill.
Gill completed his century in 125 balls. He was chosen as the 'Player of the Match' for this brilliant performance. Talking about his brilliant performance, Gill said- This was one of my best centuries. This is my first century in an ICC tournament. I am very happy. The pitch was not easy. Initially, the ball outside the off stump was not coming on the bat properly. So I used the crease against the fast bowlers.
