Rohit Sharma trips as fan tries to touch his feet, Twitter erupts

Pune, October 12 

A fan on Saturday dodged the security personnel at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium during the ongoing 2nd Test between India and South Africa, and made his way on to the playing field.

The fan came to Rohit Sharma, who was standing at the slips, and touched the opener's feet. The incident happened when Vernon Philander had just walked in after the dismissal of Senuran Muthusamy.

It was the third such incident in the ongoing South Africa tour of India. In the first Test at Vizag, a fan shook India skipper Virat Kohli's hand and tried to take a selfie with the on-field cricketers. 

Earlier during the 2nd T20I between the two teams in Mohali, the proceedings were interrupted twice as fans entered the field. — IANS

Keeping Fan Moments aside, Security should have been better. This can be injurious to players.
