In the 2023 World Cup semi-final between India and New Zealand, the Men in Blue skipper won the toss and elected to bat first at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Leading the attack from the front, Rohit Sharma ran havoc on the likes of Trent Boult, Tim Southee, and Lockie Ferguson as he got out on 47 off just 29 balls with 4 fours and 4 sixes. However, on-air commentator Harsha Bhogle's 'Vada Pav' remark did not go well with the fans on the internet as they believed Rohit deserved a better comment for his lovely knock against New Zealand.

India brought the 100-run mark in just 12 overs, courtesy Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill's fiery start to their innings. The conditions looked in favour of the batters as both openers did a good job to hand their team a positive start.


Rohit meant business from ball one as he took the counterattack straight from the first over against Trent Boult getting 10 runs from it. Later he continued his assault on Boult and Tim Southee until he got caught by Kane Williamson who did tremendously well to complete the catch in the deep.
