‘Want to keep it simple’
“I just want to keep it simple and do whatever it takes to help the team win and whatever the team needs,” Rodrigues, who hit a 52 in the first warm-up game against West Indies, told Star Sports. “When I put things in that perspective, it gets the best out of me and motivates me. For me, whenever it comes to the team, I go and give my life out there. That gets me more passionate, energetic, and enthusiastic. I want Team India to win. We, as a unit, want Team India to win. For me, it’s all about keeping it in that perspective.”
