The third and last match of the ongoing T20 series between India and Afghanistan is being played today, Wednesday, January 17, at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore. Let us tell you that in this match, Indian captain Rohit Sharma was seen talking to onfield umpire Virender Sharma in a funny manner.

What happened was that in the first over, a ball hit Rohit’s bat and went towards the final leg, but the umpire gave it a bye. But after the first ball in the next over, when the umpire was changing sides, Rohit asked Virender – Have you given Viru a Thaipad for the first ball? Brother, you have such a big bat. There are two zeros on top.

Let us tell you that before playing huge innings in this match, Rohit Sharma was out on golden duck in the first two matches held in Mohali and Indore. Perhaps Rohit was afraid that he had no runs even after five balls, so he talked to the umpire about this.
