NEW DELHI: It was not long ago that
Rohit Sharma
had set the internet in splits with his comment "jo bhi garden mein ghoomega…".

The comment, caught on the stump mic, was made during a Test against England by the Indian captain asking his fielders not to relax in the field.
Ahead of their match against Kolkata Knight Riders at the
Eden Gardens
on Saturday, Mumbai Indians shared a video on X in which
Rohit
hilariously asks
Tilak Varma
, "Aye hero, kya kar raha hai bhai? Chappal mein ghoom raha hai, kya garden mein aya hai kya?"
Tilak Varma responds, "Hai na Bhaiya, Eden Gardens!"
Rohit stops in his tracks and asks "Kya? Eden Gardens?" and turns away with a smile on his face.
For the record, Rohit has a special connection with Eden Gardens. He made his much-awaited Test debut at the iconic venue in 2013 and scored 177 against West Indies.
Rohit also notched up his highest ODI score of 264 at the same venue on November 13, 2014 against Sri Lanka.
