IPL 2024: Rohit Sharma recreates the ‘flying kiss’ to Mayank Agarwal, find out why?
Xtra Time Web Desk: Team India captain Rohit Sharma was in the mood to have fun ahead of the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad on March 27. The MI star was seen having a light-hearted conversation with the opposition players during their training session on Tuesday, at the Rajiv Gandhi Cricket Association Stadium, Hyderabad.
Rohit was seen pulling Mayank Agarwal's legs, reminding him of the send-off he received in SRH' opening match against Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens. Rohit mimicked the flying-kiss celebration of KKR' young fast bowler Harshit Rana, reminding Agarwal of the send-off he faced in SRH's close defeat to KKR. Rohit was at his comical best, as he got the attention of Mayank even though the SRH opener was trying to look elsewhere.
The video of Rohit’s banter with Mayank went viral on social media. Here’s the video:
Rohit Sharma's banter only shows the impact that Rana had on the opening day of KKR' IPL 2024 campaign. The 22-year-old fast bowler was full of confidence as he picked 3 wickets and conceded just 33 runs in a match where a massive 412 runs were scored. Despite his heroics, Rana was fined 60 percent of the match fee by the IPL for his aggressive send-off to Mayank, a gesture that also irked legendary Sunil Gavaskar.
