Rohit Sharma's Electric Pen Prank on Mumbai Teammates Goes Viral, Dhawal Kulkarni Gets the Shock
Former India captain shares hilarious gym video on Instagram, fans call it ‘vintage Rohit’ during month-long break before South Africa series
Senior India batter Rohit Sharma is making the most of his break between international assignments by keeping his Mumbai teammates entertained. A video shared on his Instagram channel shows the former India captain pulling off a prank using an electric shock pen on unsuspecting teammates during a gym session.
The clip features Rohit using a fake pen that delivers a mild electric shock when pressed. His primary target was longtime Mumbai teammate Dhawal Kulkarni, who received quite a jolt after pressing the pen’s top. Kulkarni’s startled reaction had the entire Mumbai squad laughing.
The prank took place while the team was working out together. The video shows Rohit running around playfully, teasing multiple teammates and thoroughly enjoying the laughter that followed each successful trick. His mischievous personality was on full display as he moved from one player to another with the shock pen.
Fans react to playful side
Social media users responded enthusiastically to the video. Many fans commented that this was classic Rohit behavior, praising his easygoing relationship with his domestic cricket teammates. The light-hearted moment showcased the camaraderie within the Mumbai team and Rohit’s ability to keep team spirits high even during routine training sessions.
Comments on the post described it as “vintage Rohit” and highlighted how he maintains close bonds with players he has known throughout his domestic cricket career. Despite his status as a senior international cricketer, these interactions show he remains approachable and fun-loving with teammates at all levels.
Break after Australia series
Rohit is currently home following India’s ODI series in Australia. With approximately a month before the upcoming ODI series against South Africa begins, he has some well-deserved downtime. However, staying true to his nature, he is not spending it quietly.
Before returning to India, Rohit made a strong comeback to international cricket with two solid performances against Australia. He scored a fifty and a hundred during India’s series, which ended with a 1-2 defeat to Mitchell Marsh’s side in October.
Playing only as a batter in the lineup, Rohit delivered an excellent knock that helped guide India to victory in the final ODI of the series. He handled tough spells from Australian fast bowlers early on, then built pressure later in the innings by adding over a hundred runs in partnership with Virat Kohli.
Fitness and form on display
These performances answered questions that had been raised about his fitness and hunger for runs. Rohit demonstrated that he remains committed to pushing himself at the international level, with clear goals set for the 2027 ODI World Cup.
The combination of his on-field determination and off-field personality continues to make him a popular figure both within cricket circles and among fans. His ability to balance intense competition with moments of levity reflects his approach to the game and team dynamics.
