‘Rohit Sharma pregnant hai kya?’ – Fans roast Mumbai captain for his fitness after Bangalore game in Indian T20 League
The Mumbai side did not get off to the perfect start in the Indian T20 League as they lost to Bangalore by 8 wickets. It was a hammering for Mumbai as the target of 172 was chased down in 16.2 overs. It was a resounding victory in front of the home crowd for Bangalore at the Chinnaswamy. Mumbai, on the other hand, continued to lose their first game in the Indian T20 League since 2013.
It wasn’t a good game for Rohit Sharma as well as he was dismissed for 1 of 10 balls by Akash Deep. The Mumbai captain received heavy trolling for his fitness after the game against Bangalore. There is an image of Rohit which has gone viral on social media. The India skipper went for a big shot, the ball went in the air and a picture of Rohit was clicked in his follow-through with his stomach protruding out.
Here is the image:
Rohit Sharma needs to control his weight. Only wrestling can be played with this body. Feels like Sharma is carrying a baby. He has made Indian cricket a joke all over the world. A player of such fitness does not get a chance in any country. #IPL23 #MIvsRCB #RohitSharma pic.twitter.com/8M3tFOpPvK

It is a shame of Rohit Sharma is not fit – Kapil Dev
For Indian fans and fans of Rohit, this was not a good sight to see. Rohit has been under the scanner when it comes to fitness. The right-hander has drawn flak for his fitness regime. His body has not been shaping up well over the past few years. A few cricket experts have said that he should set an example of being fit as he is the skipper of the Indian side.
Kapil Dev made his observations on Rohit Sharma’s fitness in an interview with ABP news. The former India cricketer said that the 35-year-old needs to get fit. He also mentioned that Rohit looks a little overweight on TV. Kapil said that the Indian captain needs to get in proper shape. It is said around the cricketing circles that if he does not get fit now, then his playing days are numbered.
“It is very important (to be fit). More so for a captain. It’s a shame if you are not fit. Rohit needs to put some hard work on it. He is a great batter but when you talk about his fitness, he looks a bit overweight, at least on TV. Yes, it’s different when you look at someone on TV and then in real life. But from whatever I see, Rohit is a great player and a great captain, but he needs to get fit. Look at Virat, whenever you see him, you say, ‘that’s some fitness!’,” Kapil said on ABP News ealier.
Let us take a look at the reactions on Twitter:
Idk why people are getting triggered over this . What do you expect if someone has fitness like this. Rohit Sharma is lucky that he is playing in India if it would’ve been england or australia😭 that crowd would’ve eaten him because of his fitness https://t.co/JXtoLRrYTb pic.twitter.com/SPGvooEBK3

Rohit Sharma came in little slimmer for the ODI series vs Sri Lanka & has again gone back to his pregnant self & he is our national captain, what a shame.
