Indian skipper Rohit Sharma is leaving no stone unturned as he gears up for the upcoming two-match Test series against Bangladesh. However, the captain’s recent social media post reveals that there’s always room for a bit of fun even in the middle of all the grueling workouts.

Rohit recently shared a video on his social media platform, showing his intense fitness regimen. The clip features the opener engaged in a demanding exercise, for building core strength and enhancing endurance. However, what sets Rohit apart is his ability to find balance in his rigorous schedule. The opener noted that while he dedicates 99% of his time to these intense workouts, he cherishes the 1% spent in lighthearted moments with close friends.

The two-match Test series is slated to begin on September 19 at Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium, followed by the second Test at Kanpur’s Green Park Stadium on September 27. Rohit is also utilizing the newly renovated gym at the Mumbai Cricket Association headquarters, after being exempted from the ongoing Duleep Trophy by the BCCI.

Rohit’s last on-field appearance was during India’s three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka in August, where he had consistent performances despite the team’s series loss. The board recently announced the squad for the first Test of the upcoming series, with some notable names back in the squad with a few new additions.
