Rohit Sharma displayed his anger over Rishabh Pant's schoolboy error during the India vs Australia T20 World Cup 2024 match. The incident occurred in the 2nd over of Australia's innings. Jasprit Bumrah banged in short and Mitchell Marsh could not make the right contact, the ball went up in the air but Rishabh Pant could not reach on time. Frustrated Pant pushed the ball completely unaware that Marsh is halfway down the track and he had another opportunity to dismiss the Australia captain. Witnessing the howler, Rohit Sharma could not control his anger and vented out his angst.

Rohit Sharma could not refrain from showcasing his anger toward Rishabh Pant

The episode quickly found a place on social media and spread all over the sphere. Here's what transpired in the match.

Pant's error could be costly as Marsh has looked good on the crease since getting the lucky reprieve. 

Error, skipper Rohit Sharma blazed away to a 41-ball 92 as India posted an imposing 205 for five against Australia in their final Super Eights match of the T20 World Cup here on Monday. Batting first, Rohit fired on all cylinders and struck as many as eight sixes and seven fours during his sparkling knock. Unperturbed by Virat Kohli's early dismissal, Rohit went after pacer Mitchell Starc and bludgeoned him for 29 runs in his second over, setting the tone for India at the Darren Sammy Stadium. Starc, who was taken to the cleaners by Rohit, returned to dismiss the India captain and give some relief to the Australian camp. But Suryakumar Yadav (31 off 16 balls) and Shivam Dube (28 off 22) kept up the tempo with their big hits before Hardik Pandya (27 off 17) finished the India innings in style.
