Rohit Sharma has funny response to fan asking him to describe Virat Kohli in one word

Cricketers who have been under quarantine have found it difficult to train and stay away from the game as they are constantly on the road. That's why they have found different ways to spend their time.

Rohit Sharma chooses to ignore question asking Virat Kohli to describe in one word

Some of these cricketers have resorted to social media to interact with their fans. One of the cricketers who have been immensely active on social media is Indian batsman Rohit Sharma. The right-hander recently conducted a Q and A session on Instagram where he answered a number of interesting questions, ranging from his family to his teammates. Several fans asked him to describe his teammates in one word. 

On being asked to describe MS Dhoni in one word, Rohit Sharma used the word 'legend'. The former India skipper is one of the most celebrated players in the history of the game. His record as a wicketkeeper-batsman and captain is perhaps the best India has ever had. For Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma used the southpaw’s nickname Gabbar. When it came to describing KL Rahul in one word, Rohit Sharma used an emoji.

However, when it came to describing India captain Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma didn't use any word. Instead, he simply asked the user to check the spelling after the latter misspelt Virat Kohli's surname as 'Kholi'.

Rohit Sharma’s answer on Virat Kohli might raise a lot of eyebrows because of the perceived 'issues' have transpired between the two in the past. Last year, there were numerous reports that suggested things weren't exactly smooth between Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. There were also several reports about the Virat Kohli Rohit Sharma rift as the Mumbai Indians captain had apparently unfollowed Virat Kohli's wife and Bollywood actor Anushka Sharma from social media in 2019.
