When it comes to using cricket as a platform to express his fury and rage, Rohit Sharma has never held back.
Even though there are plenty of cricket players who find it difficult to manage their emotions when the cameras are on them, they make every effort to do so.
But Rohit Sharma is not like the others. Rohit Sharma has frequently been observed on the cricket pitch displaying his emotions, regardless of whether the camera is focused on him or not.
And he was at it again on Friday, February 24, when the fourth Test between India and England was still in progress in Ranchi.
The India captain lost his temper when, while reviewing a decision, the cameras continued to focus on him rather than the replay.
Ben Foakes was struck on his pads by a delivery from Ravindra Jadeja during the 60th over of England’s innings.
The umpire ruled in favour of the batting side despite the Indian fielders’ demand for an LBW.
Nevertheless, Dhruv Jurel, who keeps wickets, was certain that Foakes was out, therefore Rohit Sharma chose to proceed with the review after conferring with the wicketkeeper.
Additionally, Rohit Sharma was continuously captured on camera while the players focused on the enormous screen. The Indian celebrity lost it and let out his annoyance in a very animated way.
Regarding the review, India squandered its third review as well, and the initial ruling was maintained. The ball was missing a leg stump, as the replays demonstrated.
In terms of the match, England was at the tea break on 198 for 5. After the visitors were reduced to 112 for 5 in the first session, Joe Root and Foakes steadied the ship with an undefeated stand of 86 runs.
After Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley put on 47 runs for the first wicket, rookie Akash Deep destroyed England’s top order.
In short succession, he removed both openers and Ollie Pope, bringing England down to 57 for 3. Despite pushing the total beyond 100 runs, Root and Jonny Bairstow were unable to put their team in a strong position at bat.
Ben Stokes was removed by Ravindra Jadeja after Bairstow was bowled by Ravichandran Ashwin, breaking the stand.
