Watch: Jasprit Bumrah hits Rohit Sharma with a fiery delivery during the warm up game
In the warm up game between India and Leicestershire XI, Indian star players like Rishabh pant, Jasprit bumrah, Cheteshwar Pujara and Prasidh Krishna all set to play for the Leicestershire XI today. Two Indian cricketers going against each other will be a great sight for Indian fans. In this warm up game Rohit Sharma won the toss for India and they will be batting first.
In this match Rohit sharma was dismissed by Roman walker as he mistimes his pull shot. It's also very rare to see Rohit Sharma mistiming the pull shot. We all know Rohit Sharma is one of the best players of pull shot. The Indian captain managed to score only 25 runs.
Before getting out when he was facing his Mumbai Indians teammate Jasprit Bumrah an incutter delivery from Jasprit Bumrah took Rohit Sharma by surprise. He was hit on his crotch and suddenly Rohit Sharma was in serious pain.But it was surprising to see that his old teammate Jasprit Bumrah did not even bother to look back at Rohit Sharma.
In this ongoing match Indian team lost wickets regularly and they were 81-5 when Ravindra Jadeja got out. Now former Indian skipper Virat Kohli has to take up the responsibility and take India to the respectable total in the first innings. Srikar Bharat has supported Virat Kohli well after the dismissal of Ravindra Jadeja. Now the Indian score is 133-5. Match has been paused since rain interrupted the play.
The rescheduled match between India and England will start on July 1 at Edgbaston. India will look to win this match and seal the series. India is already leading the series by 2-1, so this win will give some boost in the World Test Championship.
Meanwhile another Indian team which is led by Hardik Pandya will play against Ireland in a couple of T20I starting from June 26th. VVS Laxsman will take incharge of this Indian team, since Indian Head Coach Rahul Dravid is with the test team.
