The cricketers enjoyed a fun-filled evening filled with laughter and entertainment. Rohit Sharma, known for his humorous personality, playfully reacted to Axar Patel's attempt to imitate the legendary MS Dhoni's signature helicopter shot. Patel's humorous rendition of the iconic shot provided a memorable moment for the audience.
Kapil Sharma and his team ensured the cricketers had a thoroughly enjoyable time on the show, keeping them entertained with laughter, games, and engaging with the live audience. One segment of the show required the Indian players to guess the names of various cricketers.
Rohit Sharma teases Axar Patel for failing to mimic MS Dhoni's helicopter shot
In a video shared on X (formerly Twitter), Rohit Sharma held up a card with MS Dhoni's name on it. Axar Patel was tasked with giving hints to Rohit about the player. However, when asked to mimic Dhoni's signature helicopter shot, Axar failed to do so accurately.
Suryakumar Yadav stepped in and successfully imitated Dhoni's iconic shot. Rohit, recognizing the correct guess, playfully teased Axar for his inability to replicate Dhoni's signature move. The humorous interaction between the three players has quickly gained popularity and gone viral on social media platforms.
“Ye to sabhi chakka marte hain, thoda alag tarika se dikhao (Everyone hits a sixer like that. Show something different, do it differently),” Rohit Sharma told Axar Patel.
“Mai karke dikhaun, pakad lenge turant (Shall I do it? I will do it. He will get it at once),” Suryakumar interrupted.
“MSD!” Rohit reacted.
“Helicopter ghuma na (You should have done the helicopter shot),” he then told Axar.
Dhoni's signature helicopter shot has captivated fans around the world. With the possibility of Dhoni playing in the upcoming IPL 2025, Chennai Super Kings are expected to retain him as an uncapped player. Many international cricketers, including Rashid Khan and Rishabh Pant, have attempted to replicate this iconic shot, but few have achieved the same level of mastery as Dhoni.
Rohit led India to a historic victory in the T20 World Cup 2024, defeating South Africa by seven runs in the final. This title triumph made Rohit only the second captain, after MS Dhoni, to win an ICC trophy for India in the T20I format. The victory also ended India's 11-year drought of ICC trophies.
Rohit will continue to lead Team India in upcoming ICC events, including the 2025 World Test Championship final and the 2025 Champions Trophy. India have previously reached the WTC final twice, in 2021 and 2023, but is yet to secure the coveted title.
