India captain Rohit Sharma lost his cool at spinner Kuldeep Yadav after taking a DRS call during the ongoing third ODI agaisnt Australia at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. The incident happed after the final ball of the 39th over when Kuldeep convinced Rohit to take a DRS call after an lbw appeal against Ashton Agar was rejected by the umpire. Although Rohit took the DRS with a smile on his face, there was a sudden shift in his emotions as he lashed out at Kuldeep for some reason. It was not clear whether he was indulging in a banter or not.
