Shardul stepped onto the field wearing the iconic number 10 jersey which was previously donned by the legend Sachin Tendulkar. Fans all over the country trolled him and slammed him besides stated that he has not done anything yet in cricket to wear the jersey of that stature.

Soon after the game the fast bowler himself cleared the air and explained the reason of him donning the No. 10 jersey. He said that the sum of his birth date is 10 and hence decided to get the number of the jersey as 10 and it had nothing to do with the Master Blaster. But the vice-captain of the team India, Rohit Sharma, has started making fun of him ever since then. He straightaway posted a picture of Shardul Thakur on Instagram asking him his jersey number.

Rohit Sharma in Sri Lanka

Rohit averaged just over 14 before this tour in Sri Lanka in the limited overs cricket. But he changed it big-time during the recently concluded One Day Series which India won emphatically by 5-0. He managed to score 302 runs with two centuries and a half-century. Both his centuries were match winning ones and contrasting as well. His century in the third ODI was attacking when India batted first and amassed a total of 375. But his second one was a very matured inning, where he needed to consolidate the innings when his team was down at 61/4. The opener managed successfully and took India over the line while remaining unbeaten.

He would love to continue his rich vein of form for the upcoming Australia as well.
