NEW DELHI: During the first Test between India and New Zealand at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, India captain Rohit Sharma was the subject of a light-hearted moment that has gone viral on social media.
While walking off the field, Rohit received a question regarding his next Indian Premier League ( IPL ) side.
“Bhai, IPL mein kaun sa team?” the fan shouted, asking Rohit which IPL team he’d prefer next. Rohit responded, “Where do you want?”
Without missing a beat, the fan replied, “Bhai, RCB mein ajao yaar (come to RCB, brother).”
Watch:
Hearing this, Rohit didn't reply to the plea and continued walking towards the pavilion, avoiding any further interaction.
While Rohit has had a successful stint with Mumbai Indians (MI), leading them to five IPL titles, it would be interesting to see what the future holds for the right-handed star batter at the Mumbai-based IPL side.
The playful plea from the RCB supporter, however, highlights how deeply IPL rivalries run and how fans hope for game-changing transfers.
In the match itself, Rohit bounced back from a poor first innings with a solid 52 in India’s second innings, helping lay a 72-run foundation with fellow opener Yashasvi Jaiswal (32).
The hosts have staged a remarkable recovery by erasing New Zealand's mammoth 356-run lead, bringing the team back in contention for a victory.
