Mumbai Indians are enduring another slow start to their IPL campaign.

Team India captain Rohit Sharma came up with a classic 'Hitman' reply when asked if he has ever lost his cool on players on the field in a live match. Rohit Sharma, who will be seen in an episode of ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show' on Netflix along with teammate Shreyas Iyer, answered a question asked by comedian Kapil Sharma and the Hitman's reply has gone viral across social medial platforms.

In a teaser shared by Netflix India, Kapil Sharma quizzes Rohit "There are mics nowadays on the stumps. Does it ever happen that you've gotten mad at someone?"

Rohit Sharma, who is known for his witty one-line replies to questions, replied to Kapil "Kar bhi kya sakta hun, ye hamare ladke sust murge hain (What can I do? Our boys are lazy bums. They just don't run.)."

The complete episode of Rohit Sharma in ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show' will be released soon on Netflix.
