India captain Rohit Sharma has shown an amazing gesture to KL Rahul and Saurashtra players after the match against Australia on Wednesday (September 27).

India lost the match in Rajkot but won the series 2-1 against the Aussies. Rohit Sharma came back as captain in this match after being rested for the first two matches. The Indian captain was approached at the post-match presentation to lift the trophy, but Rohit showed his class there.

The India captain invited KL Rahul to collect the trophy first. KL Rahul was the player who led India in absence of Rohit, and it was a nice gesture from him to share the trophy lifting with Rahul.

"I'm pretty happy, of course I would like to go all the way along but if I'm hitting like that I'm happy. The last 7-8 ODIs we have played really well, we have been challenged under different conditions and different teams, I thought we responded to that challenge pretty well," Rohit said despite the defeat.

And during the team photo, it was yet another excellent gesture from the Indian team who invited the local Saurashtra players for the photo op. Harvik Desai, Prerak Mankad, Dharmendrasingh Jadeja and Viswaraj Jadeja were the four Saurashtra players who were called upon due to a shortage of players in the Indian team. The Saurashtra boys helped team India in the field in the match.

And it was an excellent gesture by the whole team as Rohit Sharma and co. involved those beaming Saurashtra players to enjoy and have their moment.

Team India will be off to Guwahati in a couple of days as they play England in the first warm-up game. The ICC World Cup 2023 will start from October 5 and the hosts pkay their first match against Australia in Chennai on October 8.
