SA vs IND: [WATCH] “Ek Hi Bowler Hai Aur Koi Jyada Hai Nahi” – Rohit Sharma To Shubman Gill While Facing Kagiso Rabada

During the second Test against South Africa at Newlands in Cape Town on Wednesday, January 3, India captain Rohit Sharma had a comical exchange with Shubman Gill. While batting together, Rohit humorously remarked to Gill that Kagiso Rabada is the only South African bowler they need to be cautious about.

The incident occurred in the seventh over of India’s first innings when Kagiso Rabada interrupted his run-up in the middle of an over. Shubman Gill wisely let a length ball outside off go by, earning appreciation from Rohit Sharma, who commented (as seen in a circulating video):

“Ek hi bowler hai aur koi jyada hai nahi (There is only one bowler and there are no more).”

Rohit Sharma’s counsel to Gill followed shortly after Kagiso Rabada took the wicket of Yashasvi Jaiswal for a duck, securing the initial breakthrough for South Africa. Intriguingly, both Rohit and Gill were later dismissed by left-arm pacer Nandre Burger, both caught by Marco Jansen at gully.

It’s worth mentioning that Rabada had dismissed Rohit in both innings of the first Test, in which South Africa emerged victorious by an inning and 32 runs, leading the two-match series 1-0.
