Mumbai Indians (MI) captain Rohit Sharma rolled his arms in the nets ahead of their match against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). They have already faced Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the IPL 2021 tournament opener and lost the game by 2 wickets.

Rohit was bowling his usual off-spin in the nets and it's not surprising at all considering he has bowled in the matches before. Not to forget, the offie even has a hat-trick in IPL back in 2009 for Deccan Chargers.

"When we saw RO bowl today ➡️ Tumse milke dil ka hai jo haal kya kahein ????," wrote Mumbai Indians while posting the video.

In the first match of Mumbai Indians, Rohit may have not got runs but he grabbed attention for his shoes which had a message to create awareness about an endangered Rhino species. 

"Yesterday when I walked on to the field it was more than just a game for me. Playing cricket is my dream and helping make this world a better place is a cause we all need to work towards and It was special for me to take a cause so close to my heart with me on the field while I do what I love. Every step matters," he had posted on social media, and even former England cricketer Kevin Pietersen had praised him.

Rohit will lead MI to their next match on April 13 in Chennai against KKR. Kolkata have started the tournament with a win against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Sunday (April 11).
