Rohit Sharma was left irritated by a fan's request during practice at the Melbourne Cricket Ground ahead of the Boxing Day Test against Australia starting Thursday. The incident has sparked a lot of interest among cricket fans, with many taking to social media to share their views on the matter.
The Indian team is currently in Australia to play a series of Test matches, with the first one scheduled to start on Boxing Day. The team has been practicing hard at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, and the fans have been eagerly waiting to catch a glimpse of their favorite players in action.
However, the practice session on Wednesday took an unexpected turn when a fan approached Rohit Sharma and asked him to pose for a photo with a placard that read 'Gill'. Rohit, who was clearly not pleased with the request, lost his cool and gave a stern reply to the fan.
According to eyewitnesses, Rohit told the fan that he was there to practice and not to take photos. He also reminded the fan that the team was preparing for a crucial Test match and needed to focus on their game. The fan, who was taken aback by Rohit's response, quickly apologized and walked away.
The incident has raised questions about the behavior of fans and the pressure that players face during high-profile tournaments. While some fans have defended Rohit's reaction, others have criticized him for being rude and uncooperative.
Regardless of what happened, one thing is clear - the Indian team is ready to take on Australia in the upcoming Test series. With a strong batting lineup and a talented bowling attack, the team is looking to make a statement in the series and prove their mettle as one of the top teams in the world.
The Boxing Day Test match is scheduled to start on Thursday, and fans are eagerly waiting to see how the teams will perform. Will India be able to take down Australia on their home turf, or will the hosts prove too strong to handle? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure - the series is going to be an exciting one.
