This is the final of the WTC and we really came out to see them practise and we are really happy to see them."On skipper Rohit Sharma, Vikram said that he is a very "thoughtful individual"."The first time I had the good fortune to meet him was when he was a young player in 2011 when he had come to South Africa which is just before the World Cup we won later that year. These were MSD's (MS Dhoni) boys and he was a young player, Virat was a young player. It is delightful to see how much he has matured as a captain. He is thoughtful. He is funny, he has great insight into the game and how to handle his fame. It is a matter of pride to see how cricket has shaped him and he has shaped Indian cricket."Vikram said that the head coach Rahul Dravid has "transformed Indian cricket"."You correctly called him a legend.

It is a great feeling to see them here," concluded Vikram.Australia ended at the top of the WTC table with 11 wins, three losses, five draws in 19 matches whereas India ended at second position with 10 wins, five losses and three draws.India's squad for WTC final: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane, KS Bharat (wk), Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Shardul Thakur, Mohd.
