Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) star Jiteh Sharma This could be a big name in India, but he did not win a free pass from Lord’s during the third test recently concluded between India and England.
The Guiche de Vétage-Parachutisme found itself in an embarrassing situation outside the stadium before being saved by RCB Mentor Dinesh Karthik.
Jiteh was denied entry to the Lord
After arriving at the emblematic London site, Jiteh Sharma was arrested at the gateway by the security personnel. Although the exact reason for this is not known, it appeared that he did not have the required ticket or another customs clearance had appeared.
Your daily cricket dose!
Whatever the reason, the security staff was not in a mood to let Jiteh Sharma enter the stadium. The situation being embarrassing, Jiteh Sharma explained his identity several times, but the security guard remained insensitive.
As a result, the RCB star was left outside with a large crowd. Soon, he spotted Karthik, who exercises his job as a commentator in the current series. Hoping for help, Jiteh started calling Karthik, but the latter did not hear. Jiteh then made a phone call to Karthik, who then returned and solved the problem.

This is like watching your friend embarass himself at a party and you having to pretend you dont know him haha. Except the party is at Lords and millions are watching. Poor Jitesh probably wanted earth to swallow him whole right there lmao
Wow such rescue, much heroic. DK swooping in like Superman because Jitesh forgot how to hold a bat. Maybe next time we should just send in the waterboy, might have better chances honestly 🙄
Oh yes, because getting ‘humiliated’ at Lord’s is exactly what every cricketer dreams of when they start playing. What a memorable debut moment lol.
This is joke of highest order! Absolutly unacceptable performance and embarassment to entire team. How can such player even make it to playing eleven at Lords?? Time to drop him permanently.
I dont understand why everyones overreacting so much?? These things happen in cricket all the time, its part of learning proces. Jitesh is young player and will bounce back from this setback. We should be suporting our players not tearing them down at every oportunity. DK did well yes but lets not forget Jitesh contributions in past matches to.
This is absolutly disgracful behavior at Lords of all places!! Jitesh didnt deserved this kind of humilation infront of such prestegious crowd. Thank god DK was their to save the day, what a legand he is proving to be everytime.
Why we even selecting Jitesh for such importent matches?? His performance has been mediocore at best and now this embarassing incident. Selectors need to wake up and smell the coffe already!
Everyone blaming Jitesh but nobodys talking about the captains decision making here! Why was he put in that position at Lords in first place? And people calling DK a hero – he was just doing his job that he suppose to do anyway. Stop making mountains out of molehills people.
For those who dont know, this is actualy the third time DK has stepped in to handle such situasions this season. His average rescue score is around 45.3 with strike rate of 138. Jitesh on other hand has struggled consistantly in pressure situations with only 23.4 average in last 10 innings. The numbers speak for themselfs really.
Classic case of right player wrong time scenario. The pressure at Lords is immense for any young cricketer, add to that the expectasions and media scrutiny. DK experience really showed why veteran players are invaluable in such high pressure games. Would be intresting to see how team managment handles this going forward and weather Jitesh gets another chance or not.
