The man has set the World Cup 2023 on fire so far with belligerent century against Afghanistan and brutal 86 against Pakistan. However, on the eve of India's game against Bangladesh on 19th of October, Rohit was seen bowling to Jadeja in the nets, a act that the cricketing world has not seen for a while. 

Rohit Sharma, in the initial part of his career has bowled for India and in the IPL. He has actually taken a hat-trick in the IPL too in the 2019 edition when he was playing for Deccan Chargers. The hat-trick came against Mumbai Indians, the same team who he later went onto make five-time IPL champions.

Talking about the video that has gone viral, Rohit Sharma is seen bowling to Ravindra Jadeja. On the first ball, Jadeja advances and pushes it towards the off side while on the second ball, which was pitched short of full-length, on off beat Jadeja as he tried to defend it after charging down the track.

However, nothing more should be made out of it as Rohit Sharma is highly unlikely to bowl in World Cup. Let us just enjoy this rare sight of Rohit bowling his loopy off-breaks and dive into a little of Nostalgia. India are set to play their next World Cup game against Bangladesh at the beautiful MCA Stadium in Pune.
