IPL broadcaster denies broadcasting private conversation after Rohit’s outburst
On May 16, Rohit was seen having a chat with former Mumbai teammate Dhawal Kulkarni ahead of MI’s fixture against Lucknow Super Giants.
Senior Indian opener Rohit Sharma took a blinder at the first slip on Saturday off the bowling of chinaman spinner Kuldeep Yadav, sending back Rovman Powell to the pavilion in the ongoing third One Day International (ODI) match at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune.
In the 24th over of the first innings, Kuldeep Yadav bowled a googly to Powell around middle and Windies’ number four batsman tried to dispatch it into the orbit with a slog. However, the ball took the edge of Powell’s bat and Rohit Sharma pulled off an impressive catch to his left.
Here is the video:
