Rohit Sharma, India's captain, refused to take on the extra pressure of being called favourites to win the three-nation Twenty20 International tournament beginning in Sri Lanka today. "Whether we are favourites or not, that is not something I think about," said Rohit. "T20 is such a format where any team can win on that particular day. The game can change in a span of one over. On a given day, any team can beat anyone. How do I explain it? It's like the English Premier League. Some teams may be stronger, but anyone can win on a given day."
