People were earlier talking about Test cricket (being in danger)," Rohit told reports on the sidelines of a promotional event here. "For me, cricket is important, be at any format. I'd never say that ODI is getting finished or T20 is getting finished or Tests are nearing an end. "I wish there was another format as well, because for me, playing the game is most important.
