'Dhund Rahe Sharma Ji... Dikha Rahe Varma Ji' Cameras Confuse Commentators and Fans as Broadcasters Focus on Tilak Varma Instead of Abhishek Sharma as Team India Opener Ahead of IND vs SL Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 Clash (Watch Video)
As the India national cricket team opening pair, Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma were gearing up to enter the pitch, as the Men in Blue were batting first, Tilak Varma was also warming up. Varma was just beside Gill, and the cameras of the official broadcasters of the tournament focused on the two for some time, leaving Abhishek Sharma out of the frame.
A hilarious moment was caught just before the start of the IND vs SL Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 clash. As the India national cricket team opening pair, Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma were gearing up to enter the pitch, as the Men in Blue were batting first, Tilak Varma was also warming up. Varma was just beside Gill, and the cameras of the official broadcasters of the tournament, Sony Sports Network, focused on the two for some time, leaving Abhishek Sharma out of the frame. This created some confusion in the commentary box, and probably to the fans as well. The commentators thought Tilak Varma would be opening with Shubman Gill, but as soon as the camera tilted towards Abhishek Sharma, the reaction from the commentary box was mesmerizing. The commentator said, "Hum dhund rahe Sharma ji ko woh dikha rahe Varma Ji" (We are searching for Sharma, he (cameraman) is showing Varma). Tilak Varma was stretching as he bats usually just after the openers. India won the thriller in a super over.
