New Delhi: ‘No garden mein nahi chandarga‘Social media got a fierce on-field comment by Rohit Sharma during a Test match-Social media got from the storm earlier this year. The Indian captain has now openly become a fan favorite about the story behind the viral line.
The incident took place in February 2024 during a second test against England in Visakhapatnam. Rohit was caught on the stump mike, urging his companions to show more urges during an important phase of the match. The phrase immediately hit a raga with fans and has been widely shared online since then.
Rohit has now explained the reference to his famous words.
“It was in Vizag, I saw that the over was over and the players were running leisurely as they were in a garden. Nobody was running, there was no urgency in the field. I was fielding in the slip, we were bowling spinners from both ends. The game was hanging with a loose thread, it was an important game.

What do you think what is the main reason for Rohit Sharma’s struggle in the IPL?
He said that India needed a success at that time, and it was disappointed with lack of intensity.
“So I saw it for two-three overs and then said that things cannot go on like this, you cannot play cricket like this.
Meanwhile, Rohit’s recent form in the IPL is a matter of concern. On Thursday, Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya brought him as an influence player against Sunrisers Hyderabad, but the struggle of the experienced batsman remained. He had scored only 26 runs before Pat Cummins fell.
So far, Rohit has scored only 82 runs in six innings at a disappointing average of 13.66.
The lean patch has strongly criticized former India opener Virender Sehwag, who has not withdrawn in his assessment. Sehwag warned Rohit to protect his heritage and even suggested that the former Mi could be the time to consider stepping away from the format.
