They posted a photo in which they thanked Rohit Sharma’s father for not using their product. They posted, “Thank you Sharmaji for not using us! Your Beta made us proud”. The post went viral on Instagram and on Twitter as well.

Later while playing host for BCCI Media Team after match videos, Hardik Pandya asked why he was flexing his bicep. Rohit responded, “Arey vo (Erasmus) mujhe puch raha tha ki itna lamba chakka kaise maarte ho?Ye there bat mein kuch hai? Maine bola bat mein nahi bhai power hai (Erasmus asked me how I managed to hit such long sixes, wondering if there was something with the bat, but I just told him it was my own power and not the bat).”
