Rohit Sharma's hilarious chat with Washington Sundar caught on stump mic
Rohit Sharma's hilarious conversation with all-rounder Washington Sundar has been caught on the stump mic. In a video making rounds on social media, Rohit Sharma can be heard reprimanding Washington Sundar for asking him if the batter had edged the ball. The incident took place in the 29th over of the first innings when Sundar was bowling for India.
Washington Sundar bowled to Sri Lankan batter Dunith Wellalage and then appealed for LBW. The umpire gave it not out, and Sundar turned to Rohit for advice. Rohit then looked to KL Rahul for advice, but the wicket-keeper told him that he couldn't hear the ball touching the bat. However, Rohit seemed unsure about it and told Sundar not to ask him.
In his signature style, Rohit Sharma humorously scolded Washington Sundar, saying, "What? You tell me. Mere ko kya dekh raha hai. Sab kya main karu tere liye?" (What? You tell me. What am I supposed to see? Should I do everything for you?)
This light-hearted exchange between Rohit Sharma and Washington Sundar added to the entertainment quotient of the match, reminding fans of Rohit's natural flair for bringing humor to the field. Rohit's ability to keep the mood light while maintaining focus on the game is one of the many reasons he remains a beloved figure in Indian cricket.
