Rohit Sharma's strategic bowling changes played a pivotal role in India's dominance. However, during the morning of Day 2, he appeared somewhat perplexed as Aiden Markam aggressively took on the Indian bowlers. Sharma seemed to struggle in setting the right field for Markam's onslaught.

In a viral video circulating on the internet, Rohit Sharma can be seen consulting the former captain, Virat Kohli. Sharma is heard asking Kohli, "Iske liye gully rakhu ya teesra rakhu" (Should I position a fielder in the gully or at third man for Aiden Markam). Netizens are enjoying the camaraderie between the two superstars of Indian cricket.
