In a delightful trip down memory lane, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) shared a heartwarming video from 2018 when India faced off against the West Indies. The video captured a playful prank orchestrated by the legendary MS Dhoni and the India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja on none other than Rohit Sharma, who had just been awarded the Man of the Match title.

In the video, MS Dhoni, renowned for his wit and humour, masterminded a playful trick involving Ravindra Jadeja. With Rohit Sharma engrossed in cutting a celebration cake, Dhoni gestured for Jadeja to pop a balloon near the unsuspecting star. 

The result? An unexpected burst of laughter and a collective jolly mood that lit up the room. The light-hearted prank showcased the camaraderie and the fun-loving spirit that define the Indian cricket team.

Turning the spotlight back on the match itself, Indian bowlers delivered an exceptional performance by restricting the West Indies to a mere 104 runs. The driving force behind India's successful run chase was none other than Rohit Sharma, who marked his 37th half-century in style. Captain Virat Kohli provided able support, guiding the team to victory.

Looking ahead, Rohit Sharma is on the verge of leading Team India in the upcoming ICC World Cup 2023, to be held on home soil. This will be a historic moment as it marks his first World Cup appearance as captain, following the team's semi-final exits in the 2015 and 2019 editions.
