Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma is famous for his one-liners and his quip just before taking the DRS review on the third day of the fourth Test against England in Ranchi on Sunday has gone viral. During the 30th over of England’s second innings, a ball from Ravindra Jadeja hit the pads of Ben Stokes, but the umpire did not agree to the LBW appeal. Jadeja was sure that the ball was hitting the stumps but wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel believed that the ball was going down the leg stump. Rohit was reassured by the discussion and seconds before going for the review, he urged the players to ‘use their brains’.

,A few seconds are left, everyone use your mind. (Only a few seconds left, keep your heads together)” he was heard saying on the stump mic.

Ultimately he went for review but it was unsuccessful.

Commentators were surprised by Rohit’s comment and veteran cricketer Dinesh Karthik said – “Now we know how DRS is negotiated.”

India fought back, taking wickets at regular intervals, reducing England’s lead to 166 runs at tea on the third day of the fourth Test on Sunday.

Ravichandran Ashwin (3/48) pushed England back by taking three wickets in quick succession, but opener Jack Crawley’s excellent inning of 60 (91 balls, 7 fours) gave the lead to the visiting team, who had the upper hand in the match. Is.

Kuldeep Yadav (2/10) also picked up a few wickets, while Ravindra Jadeja was a bit unlucky and some of his decisions did not go his way.

Earlier in the day, India were all out for 307 in their first innings and Dhruv Jurel missed his maiden century, being out for 90 off 149 balls with six fours and four sixes.
