Watch: Rohit Sharma Can't Help But Do This To Rishabh Pant's Antics. This Is The Reason

India captain Rohit Sharma and wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant shared a hilarious moment during the T20 World Cup Super 8 match against Afghanistan in Barbados. The incident happened in the 11th over of Afghanistan's 182-run chase after Pant and Kuldeep Yadav combined to dismiss Gulbadin Naib. On the second ball of the over, Kuldeep outfoxed Naib with a flighted delivery wide of off. Naib mistimed his slog sweep and got a top edge instead. Pant covered a decent amount of ground to pouch the ball and under armed the cherry towards Rohit, who had also made an attempt to grab the ball but stopped midway after seeing the keeper.

"Theek hai, theek hai," Rohit can be seen as saying to Pant.

Suryakumar's fifty was his 19th fifty in the format and helped India post a challenging 181-8 in their second round Super Eights opener.

Bumrah finished with a career best 3-7 from his four overs while fellow seamer Arshdeep Singh took
