Watch: Rohit Sharma's "Bhaag Kyu Nahi Raha" Rebuke To India Player During 2nd ODI Goes Viral
NDTV
Rohit Sharma did not seem too pleased with Yuzvendra Chahal when Washington Sundar was on his mark to start the 45th over of West Indies' chase. A video of Rohit showing his displeasure started doing the rounds on social media towards the end of the 2nd ODI vs West Indies.
Rohit Sharma the batter faced a rare failure but Rohit Sharma the captain was at his best in the second ODI against West Indies at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday. Rohit's attacking field placements, his proactive bowling changes, especially the move to bring back pacers Prasidh Krishna and Shardul Thakur when West Indies stand-in captain Nicholas Pooran was just looking to cut loose against the spinners, paid rich dividends for India in the second ODI, which they won by 44 runs to seal the three-match series 2-0. But there was another side of Rohit's captaincy, which is not often seen, that was visible on the field during the second match.

A video of Rohit showing his displeasure started doing the rounds on social media towards the end of the match. In the video, Rohit was heard saying: "Ek kaam kar, peeche jaa... Kya hua tereko bhaag kyu nahi raha theek se?" (Go backwards... What happened to you, why aren't you running properly?).
Rohit, rarely the one to lose his cool, is closer to the MS Dhoni mould when it comes to leading his troops on the field but his rebuke to Chahal on Wednesday even when India were just inches away from another easy win spoke volumes about the high standards he expects from his teammates.
