Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid after the trio helped Team India win the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Prime Minister Narendra Modi posted three tweets on X to praise the trio on social networks.
While Rohit Sharma did a wonderful job during the group stage and the Super 12, Virat Kohli scored a match-winning knock of 76 runs in the final. He also won the Man of the Match award. Moreover, Rohit Sharma helped India win an ICC title after a long time.
Rahul Dravid has done a wonderful job since taking over as India’s head coach in 2021. He helped the team win the 2023 Asia Cup before the 2024 ICC T20 World Cup. Notably, Dravid also put together a dominant group of players who crushed all the teams in recent times.

Dravid, Virat and Rohit will not be seen together in the near future
It is noteworthy that Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma announced their retirement from T20I cricket after winning the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Hence, Rohit Sharma stepped down from the captaincy and Hardik Pandya will lead the team going forward.
Rahul Dravid will also be stepping down from his post as the head coach after two consecutive tenures. Therefore, we can say that Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Rahul Dravid will not be appearing together on the field again in the near future. However, all of them eventually managed to win another ICC title for India after consistent failed attempts in the knockout games.
