Watch: Rohit Sharma engages in hilarious on-field banter with Dinesh Karthik
Dinesh Karthik took the collective breath of Wankhede Stadium away with his swashbuckling knock. The 38-year-old Royal Challengers Bengaluru star scored an unbeaten 53 off just 23 balls to help his side post a huge total of 196 on the board.
Rohit Sharma who is very good friends with Dinesh Karthik was seen engaging in a friendly banter that had the crowd engaged. The incident happened when the keeper-batter used the reverse scoop shot to hit Akash Madhwal for boundaries in the penultimate over.
Four boundaries were hit with the same shot, prompting Rohit to have a funny-looking animated conversation. It seemed as if Rohit Sharma was asking the veteran RCB star how he kept hitting such unconventional shots with ease.
As heard live, the Nagpur-born said, “Shabas DK, World Cup Khelna Hain Abhi (Fantastic, DK. You have to play the World Cup).”
