Team India began the home series against New Zealand with a seven-wicket win in the second T20I. The Rohit Sharma-led side successfully 2-0 lead in the three-match series. Team India captain Rohit Sharma slap Mohammed Siraj on the back of his head in the dugout.
The incident happened off the first ball of the final over when Siraj tried to grab the ball that was hit pretty hard by Mitchell Santner. It seemed like the former had split the webbing and the physio stormed into the field to give the bowler some treatment. Siraj was tapped up and returned to complete his over.
Later, the right-arm quick was seen getting a slap on the back of his head by his captain Rohit Sharma in the dugout. Nothing seemed serious about the incident as the Siraj was smiling at the moment. However, the clip has gone viral on social media and fans are wondering why did the Indian captain do that.
Delight for Rohit Sharma and his team as they take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series. Rohit and Rahul struck fifties and Rishabh finished with a flourish as India registered a 7-wicket win over New Zealand.
