Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli Share Playful Moments During India vs New Zealand 2nd ODINext

During the second ODI between India and New Zealand in Wellington, Rohit Sharma humorously recreated Virat Kohli's viral John Cena 'You Can't See Me' gesture, sparking laughter between the teammates. Kohli had initiated the gesture in the first ODI, and both players shared light-hearted moments on the field. Additionally, Kohli mimicked teammate Ishan Kishan's unique running style, while Rohit reacted animatedly to KL Rahul's stunning catch dismissing Will Young. These playful interactions added entertainment to the match alongside India's strong bowling performance.
