T20 World Cup | Rohit Sharma dismisses injury concerns after retiring hurt versus Ireland

The 37-year-old had attempted a pick-up shot down the leg side in the ninth over against Josh Little when a ball kicked up off length to thump into his arm near the shoulder blade region. Rohit winced upon impact but did not require any immediate assistance and carried on to strike consecutive sixes off the next two deliveries. However, after bringing up his half-century with a four on the penultimate ball of the 10th over followed by a couple, the physios were called on during the drinks break and Rohit subsequently retired hurt as a precautionary measure.
