In a major relief for cricket fans, Rohit Sharma, who has currently sidelined due to a calf injury, took to Instagram to share a video of him lifting weights at the gym. The star opener was ruled out of the ODI and Test series against the Kiwis. 

While many fans urged him to get better soon and wondered if the video hinted at a return, former cricketer Harbhajan Singh had a different concern. Trolling the hitman in a friendly manner, the spinner commented, "Only 40 kg for this ?? Common shaana,"
