Rohit Sharma's return to domestic cricket in the Vijay Hazare Trophy was cut short with a first-ball golden duck against Uttarakhand. Rookie pacer Devendra Singh Bora, playing only his third List A match, took the crucial wicket. Bora revealed that Uttarakhand had a pre-planned strategy to attack Sharma with a bouncer, acknowledging the risk of it going for a six but aiming to create a chance. The catch was taken by Jagmohan Nagarkoti at deep square leg, a placement also part of the plan.
