'Bade gande hain' - Rohit Sharma names two teammates he won't share a room with

India captain Rohit Sharma hilariously named two of his teammates that he would never share a room with. He stated that everybody gets a single room nowadays and never shares a room with either Shikhar Dhawan or Rishabh Pant, stating they are very messy.

Rohit's comments came during an interaction with popular comedian Kapil Sharma on Netflix’s The Great Indian Kapil Show. The 35-year-old, who is currently playing for Mumbai Indians in the IPL 2024, went on to say that nobody would love to stay with them in a room as it becomes a problem for them. Notably, India's middle-order batter Shreyas Iyer was also part of the show. 

“Everyone gets a single room nowadays. But if I get a chance to share a single room, there are two people with whom I wouldn't want to share rooms with - Shikhar Dhawan and Rishabh Pant. Bade gande hai (They are very messy). After practice, they just toss their clothes on the bed,” said Rohit.

“Their room is always on DND because they sleep till 1PM. The housekeeping staff that comes in the morning to clean their rooms, so it's important for them to put their rooms on DND. Otherwise, they will barge in. That's why their rooms often stay messy for three to four days. It becomes a problem for the people staying around them. So, I don't think I will be able to stay with them,” he added.
