Rohit Sharma gives a mouthful to Yashasvi Jaiswal at MCG; India captain asks, ‘Gully cricket khel rahe hai kya?’
Live MintIndia vs Australia: Indian captain Rohit Sharma gave a mouthful to Yashasvi Jaiswal after the latter jumped prematurely while fielding at the forward short leg on Day 1 of the fourth Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Thursday against hosts Australia. Looking visibly annoyed, Rohit yelled at Jaiswal, “Arre Jaisu, gully cricket khel raha hai kya?” which was caught on the stump mic, leaving the commentators to burst into laughter. The Indian captain further instructed Jaiswal, “Niche baith ke rah, jab tak ball khelega nahi, uthne ka nahi.” Rohit's aggressive approach reflected the high stakes of the game, with every player striving under pressure. Australia reach 311/6 at stumps on Day 1 After Australia opted to bat first, debutant Sam Konstas and Usman Khawaja laid the foundation with an 89-run stand for the opening wicket.
