Former Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma is never short of humor. Whether it is on the ground or off it, the Indian captain”s humorous way of scolding his younger teammates or questioning them is much loved in cricketing circuit. It also makes him one of the most loved cricketers in the country.
In a recent display of his humor, the Indian opener was seen trolling veteran spinner Amit Mishra in an unfiltered conversation over the latter”s age after the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 clash between Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants.
“What 40? Mere se teen saal bade ho aap (You are three years elder to me),” Rohit is heard telling the leggie before the latter replies, “I’m 41.”
Furthermore, the Indian skipper humorously said, “You made debut when we were in our nappies? You made your debut then? When you were 20?”
To his query, Mishra responded by saying, “Is it my fault?”
