“Everyone gets a single room nowadays. But if I get a chance to share a single room, there are two people with whom I wouldn't want to share rooms with - Shikhar Dhawan and Rishabh Pant. Bade gande hai (They are very messy). After practice, they just toss their clothes on the bed,” said Rohit.
“Their room is always on DND because they sleep till 1PM. The housekeeping staff that comes in the morning to clean their rooms, so it's important for them to put their rooms on DND. Otherwise, they will barge in. That's why their rooms often stay messy for three to four days. It becomes a problem for the people staying around them. So, I don't think I will be able to stay with them,” Rohit added.
Rohit also spoke about India’s loss in the 2023 ODI World Cup final against Australia, saying he expected the fans to be angry at them for losing the World Cup at home but was surprised by the support he received.

Rohit will be in action when Mumbai takes on Delhi at the Wankhede Stadium in the league stage of IPL 2024 on Sunday, April 7.
