Chandigarh, January 11

A horrendous mix-up between India skipper Rohit Sharma and batter Shubman Gill during the first T20I against Afghanistan in Mohali, sparked a meme fest on social media.

Team India suffered an early blow after Rohit Sharma was run-out for a duck on the second ball, while chasing a target of 159 being set by Afghanistan.

While departing to pavilion, the Indian skipper looked ‘furious’ over Shubman Gill, who was on the non-striker end, for not paying heed to his call for a quick single.

Soon after the dismissal, cricket enthusiasts took to ‘X’ with hilarious takes and poking fun at Gill.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
