The night of November 19 India were left numbed after their dream died in the ODI World Cup final in Ahmedabad. Skipper Rohit Sharma appeared the most shattered as the players walked off the field after the defeat to Australia. He missed selection when India hosted, and won, the 2011 edition, and the 10 wins on the trot had raised hopes that Sharma would lift the trophy he had cherished, and chased, all his career.

Teary-eyed, he, however, didn't elaborate to the media on what went wrong; a slow and used pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium and the inability of Virat Kohli and KL Rahul to hit boundaries against a sharp bowling attack was all blamed for the defeat. Sharma opted out of the current white-ball section of the South Africa tour, ins spending time with his family and friends. On Wednesday, in an Instagram video, 24 days after that loss, he said the love of fans helped him "heal".
