A light-hearted moment between Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant during the second ODI against South Africa has gone viral on social media. Cameras caught the two sharing a funny exchange near the dugout, leaving fans wondering what exactly was happening.
In the clip, Pant is seen carefully plucking a loose eyebrow hair from Rohit Sharma’s face — something commonly considered a “make-a-wish” ritual in India. According to popular belief, when a loose eyelash or eyebrow hair falls, someone else blows it away while the person makes a silent wish. Rohit appears to follow the same tradition as Pant hands him the tiny hair, and the Indian captain blows it off his palm with a smile.
The moment quickly spread online, with fans joking about what Rohit might have wished for in the middle of the match. While the India–South Africa contest was intense on the field, this small off-field exchange added a wholesome touch to the evening.
