"Pehle Hi Do Zero...": Rohit Sharma's Banter With On-Field Umpire Breaks Internet

Rohit Sharma is well known for his funny quips and his interaction with on-field umpire Virender Sharma went viral during the third T20I encounter between India and Afghanistan in Bengaluru on Wednesday. During the second over of the match, a ball from Azmatullah Omarzai touched the inside edge of Rohit's bat before hitting his pads and the batter went on to take a single. However, the umpire gave it a leg-bye and Rohit could not control his reaction. "Hey Viru (Virender Sharma), did you give the first ball as thigh pad - It clearly touched the bat. I have already dismissed for 0 twice," Rohit was caught on the stump mic.

Earlier, Rohit won the toss and elected to bat in the third and final T20I.

India are leading the series 2-0 and they will look to sweep the series. This is their last T20I before the much-awaited T20 World Cup, which is scheduled to take place later this year in the West Indies and the United States.
