India’s star batter Rohit Sharma was at his hilarious best during the third ODI against South Africa in Vizag, as he jokingly scolded Kuldeep Yadav for repeatedly appealing for wickets, a moment that has now gone viral on social media.
The incident took place when Kuldeep was convinced he had dismissed Lungi Ngidi LBW and began pleading for a DRS review. With folded hands, lively gestures, and an eager expression, he tried everything to persuade his teammates to go upstairs.
Rohit Sharma is usually calm and composed, stayed unbothered by Kuldeep’s animated appeals. Smiling at the situation, he decided against taking the review, a choice that stand-in captain KL Rahul also went along with.

The clash between Rohit Sharma’s calm demeanor and Kuldeep Yadav’s theatrical appeals created a hilarious moment for players and fans alike. During the mid-innings break, Kuldeep, who had taken four wickets, was asked about the amusing exchange.
“In DRS, I am someone who is very bad and he (Rohit) is someone who keeps pulling my leg all the time. But yeah, whenever I am bowling, if I try to hit the pad and if I succeed in that, I feel like every ball is a wicket,” Kuldeep said while speaking to the host broadcasters.
India fought back with Prasidh Krishna and Kuldeep Yadav after Quinton de Kock’s 23rd ODI century, keeping South Africa to a manageable 270 in the third and series-deciding ODI at Vizag on Saturday, December 6.
