Zaheer Khan Recalls Hilarious Rohit Sharma IPL Run-Out Incident Involving Hardik Pandya

Former India pacer Zaheer Khan recently shared a humorous anecdote from the 2016 IPL season involving Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma and all-rounder Hardik Pandya. The incident occurred during a match between Mumbai Indians and the then-Delhi Daredevils, where Rohit was batting with Hardik acting as his runner.

Zaheer, who was captaining Delhi at the time, recalled that Rohit was anchoring the innings when a massive miscommunication led to a bizarre run-out. Hardik, the runner, collided with the non-striker while attempting a run, resulting in Rohit being dismissed in an unusual fashion. Despite the unfortunate end to his innings, which saw MI fall short by 10 runs, the moment remains a source of laughter for the players involved.

Rohit Sharma's career tally of 7,046 runs across 272 IPL matches highlights his monumental contribution to the league, particularly leading Mumbai Indians to five titles. This lighthearted memory offers a glimpse into the high-stakes, yet often comical, moments that define the league's history.
