Mumbai Indians ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah recently appeared in a commercial for Indian fantasy sports app Dream11. In a short 19-second video, the fast bowler can be seen playing street cricket with youngsters, where his over hilariously gets cut-short to a mini-over due to his express pace. Apparently, his Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma took note of the commercial and took to Twitter to troll his teammate.

IPL 2020: Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma trolls his chief bowling weapon Jasprit Bumrah

On Wednesday, September 16, Rohit Sharma took to the microblogging site to troll his star pacer Jasprit Bumrah over his latest commercial appearance. In his tweet, the four-time IPL-winning captain cheekily mocked Bumrah’s fitness by writing “Half over mein retired hurt?” (Translation: “Retired hurt after a mini-over already?”). The two cricketers share a good camaraderie with each other, which is quite evidenced whenever they play for Mumbai Indians or for Team India together. Both Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah are currently in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and are undergoing training sessions for the much-awaited Indian Premier League 2020 (IPL 2020) season.
