Ind vs Eng: Rohit Sharma Imitates Harbhajan Singh’s Bowling Action, Spinner Reacts

Indian opening batsman Rohit Sharma was seen impersonating the bowling action of ex-teammate Harbhajan Singh. The batsman was seen rolling his arm to bowl a couple of overs for India. Watch video here!

When nothing was working for the Indian team and the score was 445/4. England was cruising in the first innings, Joe Root had just completed his 200 and Indian spinners felt dejected after nothing was happing on or off the wicket. At that very moment, Virat Kohli handed the ball to Rohit Sharma. It was a surprise move, perhaps Virat must have thought of trying his luck with his part-time bowler as none of his main bowlers were picking up any wickets. This happened right before the end of the second session. So, before goin in for Tea, Kohli tried out his luck with Rohit Sharma.

When Rohit picked up the ball, no one expected to do what he did. There was a storm of tweets after Rohit impersonated Harbhajan Singh. First, take a look at the video of Rohit’s Harbhajan bowling action:

Harbhajan was Rohit Sharma’s team mate in Mumbai Indians. They both are great friends on and off the field.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Janamdin Mubarak bhajju pa. Have a great year ahead. Best wishes and God bless.

England are comfortably sitting at with 10 overs remaining in the Day's play. Frustration increasing for Indian fans as the match is getting increasingly one-sided.
