Veteran India batsman Yuvraj Singh is well known for pulling the legs of his teammates. Well, the Indian cricket team’s biggest prankster Yuvraj Singh found a new target to play a prank on. And Yuvraj’s latest target was none other than India opener Rohit Sharma.

It all began when Rohit took to Instagram to post a selfie of himself holding a cup of coffee with the caption:“Mandatory afternoon @nespresso ?☕️”

It was enough for Yuvraj to jump into action as he posted a hilarious comment that a man will surely not like.  The World Cup-winning star wrote:“Hey chubby chicks!”

Poor form in South Africa:

The last year was perhaps Rohit Sharma’s best year in international. Despite missing the first half of 2017 due to injury, Rohit managed to end the year as one of the best batsman in the world. He returned to the team during the Champions Trophy in June and hit the ground running.

He finished the Champions Trophy as the second highest run-scorer and went on to continue batting in the same manner. The right-handed batsman, Rohit performed exceedingly well in the One-day Internationals since returning to the team in June. He amassed 1293 runs at 71.83 in just 21 games. He also scored the same number of hundreds (6), as Kohli at a better strike-rate than the skipper.

However, his form in South Africa has been absolutely poor. The team-management showed immense faith in him by preferring him ahead of Ajinkya Rahane for the first two Tests. However, the 30-year old failed to deliver before being dropped for the third Test. There were expectations that Rohit would regain his form once he dons the coloured jersey.

ODIs and T20Is are considered his forte and many expected that the Mumbai star would start piling up runs. However, Rohit’s poor form with the bat continued in ODIs too. His scores in the first three games have been 20, 15 and 0.
