After reluctantly choosing a review of an LBW challenge against England's Ben Stokes, India skipper Rohit Sharma's bittersweet relationship with the DRS continued on Sunday. However, Stokes escaped via umpire's call just minutes before the stroke of tea on Day 3 in Ranchi.

What caught the attention of everyone was Rohit Sharma’s message to his teammates as he debated whether or not to take the Review.

The incident happened in the 30th over of England's second innings. Ravindra Jadeja dished out a flighted delivery on the middle that spun back sharply to hit Stokes on the pad. The on-field umpire didn’t give Stokes out despite a loud appeal by Indian players.

The Indian players quickly got together around captain Rohit with wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel suggesting that the ball was slipping outside the leg stump. But Jadeja got support from Kuldeep Yadav. As the clock ticked down from 15 seconds, Rohit hilariously urged his teammates to think quickly.

Kuch seconds baaki hain, sab log dimaag lagao (Only a few seconds left, put your heads together),” was picked up by the stump mic as the commentators were left in splits.

In the end, Rohit Sharma was convinced and decided to take the review at the last second. The DRS though ruled that it was the umpire’s call.

Rohit's aforementioned one-line managed to steal the show. Dinesh Karthik quickly translated the Hindi words to English saying: "We now know how DRS conversations carry out," while fellow veteran wicketkeeper-batter Deep Dasgupta couldn't control his laughter.
