Speaking about the recent controversy related to MS Dhoni and him using the 'Balidan' insignia on his wicketkeeping gloves, Rohit Sharma has said that he knows nothing and people will get to see it on Sunday. In their second game of the tournament, India will face Australia tomorrow.

Ever since MS Dhoni’s picture with the gloves having “Balidan” insignia on it went viral on social media, there have been a lot of controversies surrounding it. A lot of former cricketers, cricket experts and politicians have voiced their opinions on this matter. Even the International Cricket Council (ICC) also asked the former India skipper to remove the gloves as per the laws of the governing body of the sport. However, Dhoni’s teammate and Indian vice-captain Rohit Sharma decided to keep silent on this issue and said that everything will be clear tomorrow during the India-Australia World Cup game. 

"I don't know what is happening with that (the gloves controversy), I have nothing to say. Maybe you'll see tomorrow," Rohit told reporters on the eve of the game against Australia, reported IANS.

Sharma had played a match-winning knock against South Africa in the first game of the tournament. His 122 also earned him the Man of the Match award and Rohit termed that as one of his best centuries.

"My 122 not out at Southampton was a very special hundred. One of my best. It wasn't an easy pitch and I had to be patient. It wasn't a typical innings from me. Not my best, but right up there," Rohit said.

"Personally I don't look at getting past anyone's record. I have to get the job done for the team. That's what matters. Opening wasn't easy for me initially. The journey continues. I want to win maximum games for my country."

When India had lost two wickets against the Proteas, it was KL Rahul who was seen at the crease at the much debated number four position. Rohit said that Rahul’s knock of 26 was as good as a half-century in that match and backed the Karnataka batsman to continue at the same position.

"KL (Rahul) didn't get a lot of runs in the last game, but he looked good and helped me put on a big partnership. His 26 was as good as a 50. I have a lot of hope on him for the tournament," he said.
