Really really disappointed, says Rohit Sharma on not being part of World Cup squad

In 2011, when the world was gearing up for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011, Rohit Sharma was on the edge to establish himself as a force to be recognised in international cricket. However, much to the disappointment of his fans and himself, he was not selected in the World Cup squad that year. It was a pivotal moment in Rohit's career, and he took to Twitter to express his feelings.
