India captain Rohit Sharma was in a hilarious mood in a felicitation programme organized by the Maharashtra Government on Friday (July 5).

After India's T20 World Cup victory, the Indian team received a magnificent reception. The Maharashtra government organized one for the local players and from the stage, Rohit cracked one in his funny style which has gone viral.

In the final against South Africa, it was a superb over bowled by Hardik Pandya. But it wouldn't have been possible without a stellar catch by Suryakumar Yadav. In the very first ball, Surya took an unbelievable catch under pressure to send set batter David Miller back in the pavilion. Along with the wicket, India saved six crucial runs due to Surya's mind-boggling athleticism and presence of mind.

Rohit Sharma was in the long-on and watched his fellow Mumbaikar taking the stunning catch at long-off, which has already been etched to be one of the greatest catches in the history of Indian cricket.

Suryakumar Yadav, Rohit Sharma, Shivam Dube and Yashasvi Jaiswal - the Mumbai quartet was present at the event from where Rohit Sharma cracked the joke about dropping Suryakumar Yadav from the team had he dropped that catch.

"After Surya took the catch, he told me that the ball sat in his hand. Thank goodness it did. Otherwise, I would have dropped him," Rohit said in a hilarious fashion, which floored the entire hall.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde announced prize money of Rs 11 crore for the victorious Indian team. BCCI announced a monumental prize money of Rs 125 crore, which was handed over to the team at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday.
