IND vs SA: 'Duckman' - Rohit Sharma viciously trolled after magical Kagiso Rabada cleans his off-stump

IND vs SA: Rohit Sharma was viciously trolled after he got out for a duck in the second innings of the India vs South Africa first Test at the SuperSport Park in Centurion on Thursday, December 28.

After South Africa finished their first innings at 308 and took a 163-run lead, Rohit Sharma came out to open for India alongside Yashasvi Jaiswal. However, the 36-year-old could last for only eight balls. On the fifth ball of the third over, Kagiso Rabada cleaned bowled for Rohit Sharma for a duck.

The delivery was full and angling into the middle-stump, but beautifully seamed away after pitching to beat Rohit Sharma's drive and knock off his off-stump. It was the seventh time Rabada dismissed the star right-hand batter in Test cricket.

In total, Rohit has scored 104 runs in 11 Test innings against Rabada. The South African quick, who has 50 Test wickets against India now, averages 14.85 against Rohit in the longest format of the game.

Rohit Sharma was dismissed by Rabada for 5 in the first innings. The twin failure led to massive trolling of Rohit Sharma on Day 3 of the ongoing Test match. Rohit Sharma, famously known as 'Hitman', was labelled 'Duckman' by a few trollers. There were many who defended him as well.

Rohit Sharma's partner Yashasvi Jaiswal was also dismissed by Nandre Burder in the sixth over. The southpaw scored 5 runs off 18 balls. Marco Jansen picked the wicket of Shubman Gill (26) to leave India reeling at 52/3 in 14 overs.
