Indian wicketkeeper batsman Jitesh Sharma said that he was definitely disappointed by not getting a place in the Indian team for the T20 World Cup, but after some time such a personal sorrow came in his life which completely changed his thinking. Jitesh’s father Mohan Sharma died on February 1 after a short illness. He told that at that time he stayed with his father for seven days and during that time he realized that family was more important to him than the world. In an interview given to news agency PTI, Jitesh spoke openly about the ups and downs of his career and personal life. Jitesh said – My father needed me more than the World Cup. On the experience of being out of the World Cup team, Jitesh said, ‘When I came to know that I was not selected, I was a little disappointed. After all, I am also a human being and it is natural to feel bad. But after some time my father became ill and died on 1 February. I was with him during his last seven days. Then I realized that my father needed me more than the World Cup. After that there was no sadness in my mind about being out of the team. Responsibility of the eldest son of the house, one cannot be weak in front of the family. After the departure of his father, Jitesh is now playing the role of the eldest son in his family. He said, ‘When you lose your father, then you understand that now it is your responsibility to take decisions in the family. I have to take care of my mother and brother. I can’t express my feelings nor appear weak in front of them, because when I play cricket, they are watching me. Cricket taught him strength. Jitesh says that cricket has taught him to move forward with this sorrow. He said, ‘If my father was alive today, he would have told me to go and practice, not worry about me. So whenever I feel sad, I think that he would have advised me to play and move forward. Taking inspiration from Rinku Singh, Jitesh, while mentioning his teammate Rinku Singh, said that it is a big thing to return to the field after personal difficulties. Gets inspiration from Virat Kohli: Jitesh said that while being with Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL, he gets a chance to see Virat Kohli closely, which inspires him a lot. He said that there is a lot to be learned from Kohli’s preparation, discipline and energy. A lot can be learned just by observing small things. The way Virat starts his day and prepares is very inspiring. However, even at the age of 32, I cannot match his energy. Three wicketkeepers can also play together. Talking about the team combination, Jitesh said that he is ready to play in any role. He said that if it is in the interest of the team, three wicketkeepers can also play together. Two wicketkeepers should play their roles and the third one should play the role of finisher. Sanju Samson and Ishan Kishan are also options in the team as wicketkeeper-batsmen.
