“Pagal Hai Thoda…”: Rohit Sharma’s Funny Conversation With Ravindra Jadeja Caught On Stump Mic. Watch | Cricket News

Rohit Sharma on Friday etched his name in history as he became the first India captain to score a century in all three formats. Rohit achieved the feat on Day 2 of the ongoing first Test against Australia in Nagpur. The 35-year-old hit a brave 120 on a turning Nagpur pitch, and helped India extend their lead over the visitors, who were earlier bowled out for 177 after opting to bat. After scoring his century, Rohit was involved in a funny conversation with all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, which was caught on the stump pic.

The incident happened on the second ball of the 77th over after Jadeja took a single off Marnu Labuschagne’s delivery.

“Yeh pagal hai thoda, sach me,” the stump mic caught Rohit as saying.

Rohit was castled by his Australia counterpart, Pat Cummins, on 120 on Day 2.

At stumps on Day 2, India were 321/7, leading Australia by 144, despite debutant off-spinner taking a five-wicket haul.

Murphy took regular wickets with his off-spin in his attempt to check India’s surge but Jadeja kept up the charge following Rohit’s dismissal soon after tea.

Jadeja was batting alongside fellow left-hander Axar Patel, who hit 52, as the pair put on an unbeaten stand of 81 for the eighth wicket.

The captain defied the spinners to reach his hundred with a boundary off Murphy in the second session.

He put on a key 61-run sixth-wicket stand with Jadeja, who stood firm after Rohit’s departure to register a fifty after his five wickets in the Australian innings.

Jadeja, who has three Test hundreds, did his trademark sword swish with the bat to mark his 18th half-century in the five-day format.
