In a heartwarming display of mentorship, India’s cricket captain, Rohit Sharma, prevented youngster Sarfaraz Khan from a potential injury during a Test match against England. On Day 3 of the fourth Test in Ranchi, Sarfaraz was fielding without a helmet at silly point when Rohit intervened, insisting he prioritize safety.

Rohit Sharma’s mentorship moment got viral on social media

Following Rohit’s advice, Sarfaraz ensured he wore protective gear in subsequent matches. This precaution proved invaluable during the Dharamsala Test against England when a fierce flick from the batter struck him hard on the helmet while fielding at short leg. He said “Aye bhai, hero nahi banne ka (hey brother, don’t be a hero here).” Fortunately, the helmet absorbed the impact, sparing Sarfaraz from harm.

India’s dominant victory and Ashwin’s milestone

The match itself witnessed India’s dominance, with Ravichandran Ashwin achieving a memorable milestone of a five-wicket haul in his 100th Test. India clinched a resounding victory, fueled by England’s impatience at the crease. England’s reckless batting led to their downfall, as they were bowled out for 195, granting India crucial World Test Championship points.

Ashwin’s stellar performance, along with Kuldeep Yadav’s standout contribution, secured India’s triumph. Kuldeep’s seven-wicket haul, including a fifer in the first innings, earned him the player of the match award.

In the ‘Bazball’ era, England faced their heaviest defeat, underscoring India’s dominance and collective effort in securing the series victory.
