Rohit Sharma was seen having some fun with Washington Sundar in the ongoing second ODI between Sri Lanka and India on August 4, 2024, in Colombo.
After the first ODI between the two sides ended in a thrilling tie, Sri Lanka captain Charith Asalanka continued his luck with the coin and won the toss. He decided to bat first on a similar-looking surface.
India came into this match unchanged and Mohammed Siraj gave India the perfect start by removing the dangerous Pathum Nissanka on the first ball of the Sri Lankan innings.
Then Kusal Mendis (30) and Avishka Fernando (40) added 74 runs for the second wicket. But then Washington Sundar struck twice in a row and dismissed both the set batters.
Then Sadeera Samarawickrama was dismissed by Akshar Patel and Janith Liyanage fell to Kuldeep Yadav. Washington Sundar returned to take the crucial wicket of Sri Lanka captain Charith Asalanka for 25 runs.
However, during the 33rd over of the Sri Lankan innings, Washington Sundar had to abort his delivery just as he entered the final stride. Then one ball later, Sundar did the same, as he stopped just before delivering the ball and rubbed his hands on the pitch to get rid of the sweat.
However, India captain Rohit Sharma, who was standing in the slips had enough of Sundar aborting his delivery at the last moment and hilariously ran towards him, mockingly trying to hit him.
This funny instance of Rohit Sharma being Rohit Sharma gave me a great moment to savor.
