Following a convincing 10-wicket victory in the first ODI against England, the two sides met at Lord's for the second match. The match witnessed some great bowling from both teams. Yuzvendra Chahal was at the top of his game for India, while Reece Topley was England's star performer.
During the first innings, while Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow were batting, Rohit Sharma appeared to be in pain after blocking a shot from Root. The Indian skipper was spotted holding his right hand. However, the discomfort seemed to last just a short time before Sharma healed himself. In a video that has gone viral on social media, Rohit seems to dislocate one of his joints and then put it back together again.
