Mumbai: Over the years, it is no secret that Rohit Sharma is not the fittest of athletes on a cricket field. Time and again, he has also faced criticism for being not fit. But on Friday, he came up with a brilliant stop at point. He stopped a certain boundary after Romario Shephard’s full-toss was sliced by KL Rahul fiercely, eyeing the boundary in the point region. The ball was travelling quickly, and it required a big dive from Rohit to stop it. Rohit stopped it with one-hand, got up quickly tp take an aim at the stumps.
Here is the clip that is now going viral:

Earlier, Nicholas Pooran hammered an audacious sensational 29-ball 75 while skipper K.L Rahul scored a trademark patient half-century as Lucknow Super Giants posted 214/6 in 20 overs.
Coming in with his team crawling at 69/3 at the halfway mark, Pooran blasted five boundaries and eight maximums, making him the player to hit the maximum number of sixes for LSG, as he and Rahul cobbled together a superb partnership in which the West Indies batter did most of the scoring.
Pooran raced to his fifty off 19 balls and raised a 100-run partnership off 40-odd deliveries to set up LSG on course for a total past 200. Nuwan Thushara and Piyush Chawla claimed three wickets each — picking three wickets without the addition of a run in the death overs to pull things back for the inexperienced Mumbai Indians bowling unit in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah after skipper Hardik Pandya won the toss and elected to bowl first.
