Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma’s unique communication style and forgetfulness have become legendary among players and fans alike. His words, often captured by stump microphones, have gone viral on social media, with memorable quotes like “agar koi garden mei ghoomta hua nazar aaya toh…” (if I find anyone roaming around like in a garden).
Rohit’s forgetfulness has also been a source of amusement. From leaving his passport and iPad behind to forgetting the playing eleven at the toss, his absent-mindedness has become a running joke.
In a recent chat with YouTuber Tamnay Bhatt, wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant shed light on Rohit’s communication style. “Bhai depend karta hai. Ground ke context mei toh mai samajh jaata hu, off the field kum aata hai samajh mei (I understand what Rohit says on the ground, but off the field I don’t),” Pant quipped.
Pant also shared an incident where he tried to distract Virat Kohli during an IPL match between Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. “It was one of the most important matches of the season for us and we needed to perform well. I couldn’t play that match and was thinking what could I do from the outside,” Pant explained.
Rohit’s forgetfulness and communication style have become an integral part of his persona. While it may sometimes lead to confusion, it also adds a touch of humor to the game.
