Rohit Sharma had an animated discussion with Lucknow Super Giants mentor Zaheer Khan ahead of the LSG vs MI clash in IPL 2025.
Mumbai Indians (MI) batter Rohit Sharma and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) skipper Rishabh Pant shared a heartwarming moment ahead of their clash in IPL 2025 scheduled for Friday. Rohit Sharma was seen having a conversation with Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) mentor Zaheer Khan on Thursday and it was at that time when Rishabh Pant walked up and hugged Rohit.
In a video uploaded by Mumbai Indians, the former Mumbai Indians captain could be heard telling Zaheer: “Jo jab Karna tha maine kiya barabar se, ab mereko kuch karne ki zarurat nhi hai (Whatever had to be done, I did it properly, now I don’t need to do anything)”. Pant immediately went up to Rohit and said: “Haanji”. It is, however, unclear as to what the context of Rohit’s quote is.
Q: For how long are you going to watch this reel? 😍
