Twitter reacts to crowd cheer depriving ‘impatient’ Rohit Sharma of well-deserved half-century
Crowds returning to the stadiums have brought normalcy back in India and they really made a spectacle in Chennai and Ahmedabad. However, in the fourth Test, with Rohit batting on 49, crowds started chanting his name and an impatient Rohit lost concentration to be dismissed a run short of his 50.

But Still, very well played Rohit Sharma, stood alone fighting on this track, missed a well deserved 50 at least, it was unlucky!

But still from haters wanting you out of the test team to becoming India's best Batsman in this series, the effort is worth it!
Love you @ImRo45 🇮🇳❤️
Rohit's strike rate was less than 35 today. Unbelievable!
Rohit Sharma out on 49(144).

Hard luck
Impact = Umpire’s Call

Hitting the stumps = Umpire’s Call
Should be NOT OUT.
As it is it’s difficult to make peace with one umpire’s call....two is a little too much. #IndvEng #Rohit
Indian crowd cheering Indian batsmen at 49 or 99 to make sure they won't make 50 or 100. #INDvENG #INDvsEND #RohitSharma
