Team India captain Rohit Sharma is arguably one of the most animated characters on the field, especially with his comments that are captured on the stump mic. A video of the same has emerged on social media emerged as he was talking to a fielder about the fielding positions during the second Test between India and Australia in Adelaide.
In a video surfaced on Instagram, the 37-year-old was seen asking the fielder why was he changing his position continuously. He responded by saying that Harshit Rana was the one standing there as Rohit followed it by stating that he must stop moving from that position.
Below is the video of the same:
The Nagpur-born cricketer had missed the series-opener in Perth due to paternity leave, but returned for the pink-ball Test in Adelaide, replacing Jasprit Bumrah at the helm. However, the right-hander departed cheaply in both innings, managing a single-figure score as India's dismal batting performance resulted in a ten-wicket defeat.
"There were times when we could have grabbed the opportunity but failed" - Rohit Sharma
Rohit expressed his disappointment at the defeat, admitting that it was a disappointing week for them and lauded Australia for their approach in the pink-ball Test. He stated at the post-match presentation:
"Disappointing week for us. We didn't play well enough to win the game. Australia played better than us. There were times when we could have grabbed the opportunity but failed, which cost us the game. What we did in Perth was great but every game throws a new challenge. Looking forward to the next Test and we will see what we did well in Perth and in Brisbane too last time."
