An old tweet by Yuvraj Singh from 2010 has gone viral in the past few days. Rohit Sharma, who was still struggling to find his spot in the Indian team, had tweeted how he had just returned from practice. He had also stated that India were going to play a very important game the next day and wanted everyone to wish the team luck, as the next day they were to face Sri Lanka in the 2010 Asia Cup Finals.
Yuvraj in reply just tweeted, “Good luck run faster fatty.” That tweet has now gone viral on X, with the tweet getting 132 likes and 981 retweets. India went on to win that match, with Rohit scoring a vital 41, ensuring India won the finals.
Yuvraj had missed the tournament after being dropped due to bad form. He was also dealing with fitness issues, but Indian Captain MS Dhoni was sure Yuvraj would make his way back into the Indian side. Yuvraj soon was in the team and was vital for India winning the 2011 ICC ODI World Cup, where he was awarded the player of the tournament.
Ravichandran Ashwin recalls Virat Kohli’s nightmare
R. Ashwin recalled a time he and Virat Kohli were sitting in the dressing room, watching India bat. Rohit was batting and Ashwin talked about how he was thinking how anyone would bowl to Rohit after they were set.
Virat then asked R. Aswhin, “Do you know who is a captain’s nightmare at the death?” Ashwin, like most people, answered MS Dhoni. MS Dhoni was known as the best finisher the sport had ever seen, with him going all out during the death for India and his IPL teams.
Kohli had replied, “No. it’s Rohit.” Ashwin asked him why it was Rohit and Kohli said he just doesn’t know where to tell the bowlers to bowl.
