Rohit Sharma’s Hilarious Eden Gardens Banter with Tilak Varma
Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma has once again displayed his witty side, this time during a light-hearted exchange with Mumbai Indians teammate Tilak Varma. Ahead of their match against Kolkata Knight Riders at the iconic Eden Gardens, Rohit was caught on camera teasing Varma about his footwear.
“Aye hero, kya kar raha hai bhai? Chappal mein ghoom raha hai, kya garden mein aya hai kya?” Rohit asked Varma, who was wearing slippers.
Varma responded with a chuckle, “Hai na Bhaiya, Eden Gardens!”
Rohit’s expression changed as he realized the significance of the venue. “Kya? Eden Gardens?” he exclaimed, before turning away with a smile.
Rohit’s banter with Varma has become a viral sensation on social media, with fans appreciating his sense of humor. However, the exchange also highlights Rohit’s deep connection with Eden Gardens.
In 2013, Rohit made his much-anticipated Test debut at the iconic venue against West Indies and scored a memorable 177. He also notched up his highest ODI score of 264 at the same ground in 2014 against Sri Lanka.
Rohit’s success at Eden Gardens has made him a fan favorite in Kolkata. His latest banter with Varma is a testament to his love for the city and its cricket-loving crowd.
