Twitter user zoomed in on the photo and found the glitch
Everything was fine, his caption, attire, flag, even there was not any factual error in the post. But still, something went south for the 35-year-old that fans trolled him for the photograph.
Actually, a Twitter user zoomed in on the photo of the flag that Sharma was holding and he found something out of the line.
Here's how Twitter reacted to Rohit Sharma's post:
I thought just the flag was edited, but rod too 😭 https://t.co/lMvF5Vqa0P pic.twitter.com/WMVnyuFmRc
