With the help of excellent batting by Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubhman Gill and Sarfaraz Khan, this lead was taken beyond 550. As soon as Jaiswal completed his second double century, everyone was waiting for captain Rohit Sharma to declare the innings.
After the drinks break in the second session, when India was ahead by 536 runs, Yashasvi and Sarfaraz started walking towards the dressing room. However, then captain Rohit Sharma did not declare the innings and he asked the batsmen to return.
The video of this incident went viral rapidly on the internet. In the viral video, Rohit can be seen gesturing with his hand that he is stopping both the batsmen from coming towards the dressing room.
