For the uninitiated, the prolific Indian hitter will lead the squad for the first time as the Team India captain against Sri Lanka, which is set to start on March 4. Due to an injury, the batsman missed the Test series against South Africa and spent a long time at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru getting fit to play. He will now lead his team in a two-match Test series against the Lankan Lions.

Meanwhile, Rohit's Twitter account has been sending out bizarre posts since March 1st morning. At first a tweet from his account read: “I love coin tosses…especially when they end up in my belly!”

Cricket balls are edible…right?

Fans from all over the country started responding to the series of unusual tweets that were coming from Sharma’s account with some funny posts of their own, even though they were potentially aware that it wasn’t in fact the cricketer who was writing all those messages. Even his teammate, Yuzvendra Chahal was stunned and curious:

Bhaiya? What’s happening, Sab theek hai na? https://t.co/yXDLithw6f

However, one of the most innovative and interesting Twitter accounts in India, the Delhi Police made the most out of this opportunity to share a few laughs with the commonfolk:

SAFETY ADVISORY:
No-ball is edible! If you try, you will surely get a (free) hit! https://t.co/Q9HCjxcEVL

Surprisingly, Rohit has been winning a lot of tosses since becoming the leader of the Men in Blue in all three formats of the game.

Fans on social media became interested as a result of a series of weird tweets from the skipper account, and they responded with some hilarious responses. In reality, the majority of fans predicted that Rohit's account would be hacked.

On the field, Rohit Sharma will captain India in the next two-match Test series against Sri Lanka. In his maiden series as Test captain, Rohit Sharma will have a lot to prove with the bat and as a leader of an elite team in the game's longest format. 

So far, the 34-year-old hitter has appeared in 43 matches in the format, scoring 3047 runs at a 46.88 average. In addition, the hitter has 14 half-centuries, eight hundreds, and a double-hundred under his belt.

Meanwhile, India's Virat Kohli, who last struck an international century in Test cricket in November 2019, will be hoping to break his long drought. On March 4, the former captain will play his 100th Test match against Sri Lanka.
