While talking to David Warner, 33-year-old Rohit said that when you grow up in India, it really happens that when you are growing up you say that cricket is life.

 

But when you are 38 or 39 years old, then you are far ahead of cricket.

 

Rohit said that he does not know when he will finish all this, but he will retire before this.

 

It is also believed that Rohit will say goodbye to cricket after the 2023 World Cup, because by that time his age will be close to 36 years and his dream is to get another World Cup for his country.
