Rohit Sharma's advice saved Sarfaraz Khan : The fourth match of the Test series between India and England was played in Ranchi. The Indian team achieved a spectacular victory in this match. In this match, captain Rohit Sharma played a brilliant inning of 55 runs for the Indian team, but more than his batting, one of his one liners was much discussed in this match. Rohit's line was 'not to become a hero'. Captain Rohit Sharma said this line to Sarfaraz Khan and his words proved to be a boon for Sarfaraz in Dharamshala.
Rohit's advice saved Sarfaraz's life
When Sarfaraz came to field at Silly Point in the Test match played in Ranchi, he was not wearing a helmet. In such a situation, Rohit Sharma immediately said to Sarfaraz, “O brother, don't become a hero, wear a helmet.” After this he wore the helmet. Something similar happened in the Dharamshala Test match when Sarfaraz was standing at short leg and the ball hit his head.
A major accident was averted with Sarfaraz
When Shoaib Bashir came to bat on the third day of the Dharamshala Test, he hit a tremendous shot on the ball of Kuldeep Yadav in the 38th over. Whereas Sarfaraz was deployed for fielding at short leg. The short was so powerful that Sarfaraz did not have time to react. In such a situation, before he could save himself, the ball hit his helmet. It was only because of the helmet that nothing happened to Sarfaraz, otherwise a major accident could have happened on the field. Not only this, Sarfaraz will also remember what Rohit Sharma said in the Ranchi Test and henceforth he will not make such mistakes regarding security. Talking about the match, the Indian team defeated England by an innings and 64 runs in Dharamshala and won the series 4-1.
