IND vs AFG 1st T20I: Forgettable return for skipper Rohit Sharma in T20Is, falls for duck after horrible mix-up

Indian skipper Rohit Sharma’s T20I comeback turned out to be a disastrous one as the opener got dismissed on duck after a horrible mix-up with Shubman Gill in the first over in IND vs AFG 1st T20I at Mohali.

Rohit, who made a comback to T20I after a gap of 14 months, was left frustrated and fuming after Gill was caught ball watching and didn’t run which led to the run-out.
