‘Tu to dev-manus nikla re…’ – Fans hail Rohit Sharma as he comes to bat on number nine with injured thumb

Indian skipper Rohit Sharma caught the eyeballs of the cricket fans during today’s ongoing match against Bangladesh. It all happened when he injured his left thumb while attempting a catch off Anamul Haque while standing in the second slip. Following this injury, the medical team took him to hospital for the further scans and check-ups.

Subsequently, the 35-year-old couldn’t become a part of the entire Bangladesh innings and vice-captain KL Rahul led India in Rohit’s absence. Everybody was worried about Rohit Sharma and whether he would come to the field again or not,

But the skipper shocked everyone when he came to bat at number eight with an injured thumb. Rohit came into the middle following the dismissal of Shardul Thakur on the first ball of the 46th over.

The cricket fans also went in full awe of the Indian skipper and they heaped praises on his dedication and perseverance for the team.

Here’s how fans reacted:
