WATCH: Rohit Sharma hits Wicket-keeper on his back during India vs Prime Minister XI Pink-Ball Warm-up Game

Harshit bowled a short ball, which flew past the batter. The ball suddenly swung to right and Sarfaraz fumbled, where Rohit cheerfully hit him on the back.

The Indian Test team is currently engaged in warm-up matches with the Prime Minister’s XI in order to prepare for the 2nd Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the Manuka Oval in Canberra.

Sarfaraz Khan was the player who was wicketkeeping during the pink-ball warm-up game. Sarfaraz is capable enough to do wicketkeeping, but is not someone who does it on a regular basis.

One peculiar moment of the match happened when Sarfaraz was keeping the wickets as regular, but missed out on a catch, where skipper Rohit Sharma reacted in a rather indecisive way.

The incident happened at the 23rd over of the inning. Harshit bowled a short ball to Oliver Davies. The ball flew path the bat and Sarfaraz missed it as the ball swung to his right. As Sarfaraz picked up the ball, Rohit cheerfully hit him on the back. This video has gone viral on social media ever since this happened.
