'Humility'

Asia’s richest man Mukesh Ambani offered tea to #RohitSharma and he politely declined.

Not arrogance, but discipline. Rohit sticking to his fitness and diet routine even off the field. A small moment, but a big statement about an elite athlete’s mindset. 🇮🇳#INDvsUSA #T20WC pic.twitter.com/bKpq04I0Rs

In their opening match, India struggled to get going against USA and at one stage it appeared the defending champions might lose the contest. However, thanks to Suryakumar Yadav's match-winning unbeaten 84 off just 49 balls India posted 161/9 in 20 overs. In response, USA were restricted to 132/8 in 20 overs.
