Team India skipper Rohit Sharma was seen struggling in the 3rd T20I against the West Indies as the Men in Blue physio came out to attend him during the match. After a long and hard discussion with the medical staff, Rohit walked off the ground which was shocking for everyone. It was humid at the Warner Park as India were chasing a target of 165 runs. The temperature was 35 degree celsius with 70 percent humidity and it looked like Rohit was caught under the heat. (WATCH: Virat Kohli gets 'ANGRY' on Anuskha Sharma at Mumbai airport for THIS)

Notably, Rohit was batting 11 off 5 balls with a six, four and single before he got retired hurt. Later on, Shreyas Iyer walked to join Rohit's opening partner Suryakumar Yadav in India's chase of 165 in 3rd T20I against the Windies.
