Rohit and Hardik talked to each other for a long time Vimal Kumar said on the ‘Two Sloggers Podcast’, “When I went to the nets, I saw that Hardik and Rohit were not talking. On the first day they did not talk and were away from each other, but on the second day I saw them come one by one and sat together in a corner and talked for a long time. For me, that moment defined this team. There were no cameras; nothing. The way Rohit and Hardik were talking, I thought ‘what am I watching?’” He further said, “A lot is going on in India, people are talking about their differences. After that, for the next three days, Rohit and Hardik practiced batting and bowling together. When I saw that atmosphere, it showed how comfortable the team atmosphere was and in the end the whole world saw what happened.”

The reporter said that Hardik hit a shot towards point and immediately claimed that it was a boundary. Nair disagreed and said that he had placed a fielder in that area. When Hardik asked about the exact placement of the fielder, Nair pointed to the spot where the reporter wearing a red T-shirt was standing. When Nair asked the reporter about the shot on Hardik’s insistence, he said, “If you have placed your fielder here, then it is a boundary.” Nair and Hardik laughed at this funny answer.
