Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir Video: The ODI series against England has not gone well for Team India’s veteran opener Rohit Sharma. Rohit’s bat remained completely silent in the first and second matches of the series. In both the matches, he stayed at the crease for a long time but could not score runs openly. Meanwhile, the report of his last match at Lord’s also created a stir. But meanwhile, before the last ODI match at Lord’s, a video of Rohit and coach Gautam Gambhir has surfaced, which became a hit on social media.
Joke between Gambhir and Rohit
The decisive match of the ODI series between India and England is to be held at Lord’s Cricket Ground in London on Sunday, July 19. A day before this match, on Saturday, the Indian team practiced for a long time at Lord’s. Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma, Gautam Gambhir and batting coach Sitanshu Kotak were seen talking in the famous balcony of Lord’s Stadium. Especially Gambhir was seen making some jokes, on which he and Rohit were seen laughing a lot.

Now, it is difficult to say what happened between Gambhir and Rohit. From Gambhir’s body language and gestures, it seemed as if he was perhaps imitating former captain Sourav Ganguly’s waving of his jersey. But this video did not go viral because of this, rather the reason for this is the recent controversy related to Rohit-Gambhir. Actually, a report came after Rohit’s failure in the second ODI match. In this it was claimed that the selectors have told Rohit that he will not be selected further after the England series.
Claims of tension between the two
The report claimed that the selection committee and head coach Gautam Gambhir told Rohit that he was not a part of their plans for the World Cup 2027. In such a situation, the last match of the series to be played at Lord’s will also be the last match of Rohit’s ODI career. Rohit did not like this and was not happy with it. Since then, there is speculation that relations between Rohit and Gambhir are no longer good. This is the reason why the latest video is viral, in which both are talking openly to each other.
