Iceland Cricket trolls BCCI for not showing highlights of Rohit Sharma’s Vizag innings

India opening batsman Rohit Sharma, who opened the innings for the first time in Tests in the match against South Africa in Vizag, smashed centuries in both innings of the game to help his side register a comfortable 203-run victory.

Following the blitzkrieg, Rohit was declared the Man of the Match.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) took to Twitter to share a video after Rohit was dismissed in the Vizag Test which showed South African players congratulating the Indian opener. However, Iceland Cricket quickly took to Twitter and trolled the BCCI for not showing the highlights of Rohit’s innings in it.

“Wow. Most sixes in a match, twin centuries, twin stumpings. Once again we thank the BCCI for these wonderful highlights: No Hits from Rohit,” the tweet read.

Rohit had scored 176 and 127 runs in the first and second innings, respectively. Meanwhile, the Mumbai batsman also became the first Indian to score a century in both innings in the first game as an opener in the longest format of the game.

However, in the second Test in Pune, Rohit failed with the bat as he could only manage 14 runs before being dismissed by South Africa pacer Kagiso Rabada.
