The incident took place in the fifth over of Indian batting and the play was stopped for a while to check whether the girl suffered any injuries.
Meanwhile, commentators Ravi Shastri and former English skipper Michael Atherton hinted that someone had indeed got hurt in the stands.
“It seems someone in the crowd may have gotten hit by this six from Rohit Sharma. Fingers crossed… nobody is hurt,” said Atherton.
“Yes, looks that way. The way Rohit is looking towards that area, he might have got the message it’s probably hit someone,” Shastri added.
Meanwhile, the girl got some medical injuries and the match resumed after a short interval.
The video of Rohit’s sixer hitting a girl went viral all over social media and fans showered love, concern and pampering towards girl.
Meanwhile, Rohit smashed 76 runs off 58 balls while Shikhar scored 31 runs off 54 balls to help the Men in Blue chase down the target of 111 runs in just 18.4 overs. Apart from Bumrah, Mohammed Shami took three wickets while Prasidh Krishna settled for one.
