Watch: Rohit Sharma’s hilarious brain-fade moment at toss in 2nd ODI
Rohit Sharma had a brain fade during the toss in the second ODI between India and New Zealand which is being played at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur on Saturday. Rohit won the toss but forgot what he wanted his team to do first. It took him over 10 seconds to come to the decision of bowling first as opposition captain Tom Latham and match referee Javagal Srinath waited eagerly for the India skipper to take a call.
“I forgot what we wanted to do, had plenty of discussions with the team about the toss decision, just wanted to challenge ourselves under difficult conditions, but we’ll bowl first,” Rohit said at the toss. “We batted first in Hyderabad, we wanted to bowl first here, same team.”
Rohit’s brain-fade moment also led to hilarious reactions on Twitter with fans flooding the social media platform with jokes and memes.
Here are some of the best reactions:
