During the second Test against England in Visakhapatnam, India’s captain Rohit Sharma showcased his entertaining side on the field, contributing to their 106-run victory that leveled the series 1-1. Rohit’s funniest interactions with teammates, captured by the stump mic, became a sensation all over through social media.
On Day 4 of the second Test, Rohit continued to entertain, with one particular moment gaining viral attention. Despite losing his voice from constant shouting throughout the game, Rohit humorously said, “Mere gale ka watt lag gaya hai chilla chilla ke tum sab ko”, during the 34th over of England’s second innings, which grabbed all the attention of fans.
Popes Struggle:
In addition to his verbal flair, Rohit Sharma displayed his fielding prowess by taking a remarkable reflex catch to dismiss the in-form Ollie Pope, who scored 23 runs off 21 balls in the first session. Despite initially moving towards his right, he swiftly adjusted to his left and executed a stunning catch.
Despite this success, Pope has struggled with form in the series, managing only 90 runs from four innings at an average of 22.50. As the third Test commences on February 15 at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot, Pope will be eager to register a substantial score and regain his form.
India Yet to Announce Squad for Remaining Three Tests:
As of now, India has not finalized their squad for the remaining three matches of the series, with uncertainties surrounding the availability of Virat Kohli. Kohli, a key batsman, had opted out of the first two matches due to personal reasons and has not confirmed his participation in the upcoming Tests.
Additionally, the return of injured players KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja adds another layer of intrigue. Fans eagerly await news on whether these players will make a comeback for the final three matches of the series.
