It was Rohit Sharma’s night in Sydney as the former Indian captain silenced his haters, proving yet again why he is fondly called the ‘Hitman’ by his fans. Along with partner-in-crime Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma secured the win for India against Australia, chasing down the total with ease and scoring an unbeaten knock of 121 runs en route to his 33rd ODI century. and 50th International century overall.

Those who doubted him were made to eat their own words as Rohit Sharma did what Rohit Sharma does best. Let the bat do the talking. And as the Indian opener started shaking hands with the opposition, fans and his teammates noticed something hilarious. Rohit Sharma was displaying yet another of his signature character traits. That being his forgetfulness and absent-mindedness.

The 38-year-old had forgotten to remove his helmet after his match-winning knock and was roaming around with his helmet on! When he realized that he still had the helmet on,e then asked sidearm thrower Dayananda Garani for his cap. While all this unfolded, a few of his teammates, including the new skipper Shubman Gill, were seen bursting out in laughter.

In the end, KL Rahul, in a heartwarming gesture, gave his own Team India cap to Rohit Sharma, who removed his helmet to put it on before strutting towards the post-match presentation dias.

Rohit Sharma’s forgetful nature didn’t go unnoticed by Social Media, as soon after, videos and images of the funny incident were being circulated online.
