During Australia's innings, as Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne steadied the innings, Rohit positioned Jaiswal close to the bat to field with spin bowler on the attack. However, Jaiswal's overly eager movements, jumping before the ball was played, prompted Rohit to scold him, saying, "Oye Jassu, Gully cricket khel rha hai kya? Tab tak mat uth jab tak ball khel na le (Hey Jassu, are you playing street cricket? Don't get up until the batsman plays.)" The sharp rebuke, captured on the stump mic, has gone viral online.
