England cricket team’s gesture to help an injured spectator during the first ODI match against India is winning hearts on social media. Indian skipper Rohit Sharma slammed a lovely six early in his innings off David Willey. However, his brilliant shot hit a little girl at the Kennington Oval ground in London.
Chasing 111 runs, Indian openers Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan got the team off to a good start. Rohit Sharma looked in good touch, trying to take on the England bowlers. In the fifth over, he swiveled across and hit a short delivery from David Willey over long leg for a six.
Unfortunately, the ball hit a little girl in the stands. The England cricket team send their physio to look after the girl. Their gesture won the hearts of the fans on social media with people showering praise. There has been no official update yet on the little girl from the stadium.

Bumrah broke the back of the England team, who couldn’t recover from his initial spell.
