But the clip that is going viral, is it true?
As per sources, they were two random fans fighting – not Rohit or Hardik supporter. With the bat, Rohit hit a breezy 43 off 29 balls, whereas Hardik, who walked in a little late hit 11 off four balls.
“Obviously we backed ourselves to chase those 42 runs but it was one of those days when we see the score quite less compared to what it could have been in five overs, I think we lost little bit of momentum there. It feels good to be back because this is one stadium where you can enjoy and feel the atmosphere quite lively and obviously the crowd was full and they got a good game as well,” Hardik said at the post-match presentation after the heartbreaking loss.
