Rohit Sharma might not be considered among the fittest cricketers, but he is surely one of the hardest-hitting batters. He has defied stereotypes that you must have six-pack abs to shine on the cricketing field. However, when he fails to perform, he often faces criticism for not paying enough attention to fitness.
Netizens trolled Rohit Sharma for editing his belly
In the world of social media, everyone wants to represent themselves in the most elegant way possible. A celebrity would never post a picture that doesn’t look good. So, they sometimes edit their photos as well. However, it’s not easy to escape the eyes of netizens.
Recently, Rohit Sharma posted a picture on his Instagram handle, editing his belly so he could appear slim. On the other hand, BCCI’s handle also posted the same picture, but they hadn’t edited the image. Fans were quick to notice the difference in the two photos and pulled Rohit Sharma’s leg for editing his appearance. The photo was later deleted from Rohit Sharma’s Instagram, likely due to the trolling on social media.

On a serious note, Rohit Sharma has proved that core strength is more important than a lean body for a batsman. That’s the reason he has the most sixes to his name in international cricket and also has endurance; 3 ODI double-centuries are a testament to it.
Rohit Sharma is currently in Colombo preparing for the ODI series against Sri Lanka. The Mumbai-born cricketer will continue to lead the ODI side, and August 2 will mark his first appearance on the field since lifting the T20 World Cup.
