The pitch discussions regarding the Narendra Modi Stadium aren't ending anytime soon and many other players have started joining the bandwagon taking funny, cheeky digs at the same. The newest entry is the opening batsman Rohit Sharma, who took a sly dig amidst the rising conversations about the pitch laid out during the Test matches in India.
Sharma put a picture of him chilling on the ground and was seen in an introspective state, lost in thoughts, however, he captioned it with a cheeky line. He wrote, "Wondering what the pitch would be like for 4th test," followed by an emoji signalling cluelessness.
While this is not the first time an Indian cricketer or even Rohit for that matter has spoken about the pitch discussion that followed just after the day-night Test in Ahmedabad after the game ended in just two days. As, after the game, Rohit, skipper Virat Kohli and a few days later off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin expressed their frustration regarding the repeated talks of the pitch in India and the latter even said that they were 'getting out of hand'.
Meanwhile, Twitterati got their own sweet time to poke fun at Rohit's pose. The netizens flooded memes giving some film references, and many other hilarious reactions. While some found Rohit bored in a history class, some found him outside a 'Vada Pav' (a Maharashtrian delicacy) shop.
Here are some of the reactions:
