IND vs PAK: Virat Kohli floors Rohit Sharma with a shot while batting together against Pakistan

After getting off to a poor start with the bat, team India’s innings was stabilized by skipper Rohit Sharma and former Indian skipper Virat Kohli as the duo stitched a vital 49-run partnership to put their team back into the game. While Kohli looked more proactive in his innings, skipper Rohit played the second fiddle. Meanwhile, Rohit was floored after being hit by Kohli right after the field restrictions got over. Facing spinner Shadab Khan, Kohli drilled an overpitched delivery straight back as the ball hit Rohit at the non-striker’s end who somehow managed to deviate the ball with his hand. Skipper Rohit completed the single after being hit Despite being hit by the ball, Rohit quickly got up and completed the single. The right-handed batter was also seen wearing a smile on his face as he rushed towards the striker’s end while the ball was being picked up by the long-on fielder. The video is being widely shared on social media platforms.
