Rohit Sharma and Co. locked horns with Afghanistan in the second T20I on Sunday (January 14) at the Holkar Stadium in Indore. And while India won the match with ease, Rohit became a talking point on social media for three reasons.
First, he departed for a golden duck, registering his second consecutive duck in the format. In the first match, after becoming a victim of a mix-up, Rohit headed back to the dressing room for a duck. In the second T20I, Fazalhaq Farooqi sent Rohit packing in the first over.
Then, after leading India to a six-wicket victory, Rohit has now won most T20I series as captain of Team India. And lastly, Rohit’s hilarious face became meme material. The skipper wore an expression of utter confusion while looking at something while fielding.
