(PC: Instagram)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"0\" class=\"story_para_0\">India ODI skipper Rohit Sharma was in trolling mode on Tuesday (September 9) as he sneakily barged into Abhishek Nayar\u2019s room and called him out for being \u2018stiff\u2019 at all times. Nayar couldn\u2019t help but smile, though he did give a nice retort to Rohit, who has been one of his close friends for some time now.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">The duo seemed to be in a hotel suite with adjacent bedrooms in a beautiful setting. As soon as Rohit entered the room, he told Nayar to \u2018get up\u2019. He went on to say: \u201cThat\u2019s Abhishek Nayar, by the way, whether he plays, whether he coaches, whether he\u2019s on his bed, he\u2019s always stiff.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">To this, Nayar responded: \u201cI am flexible when I am coaching.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">The seemingly inside joke between the two Mumbaikars made Rohit laugh cheekily. He then turned to Amit Dubey, a sports physio, and teased him a bit too. Watch the clip here:<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Rohit and Nayar are said to be working privately in Mumbai to build up the former\u2019s fitness ahead of the India-Australia ODI series in October. Rohit has retired from Tests and T20Is, and, despite being on the wrong side of his 30s, is said to be determined to push his body as much as possible for the 2027 ODI World Cup.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">Nayar, on the other hand, also worked extensively with Rohit during his short stint with the Indian team as an assistant coach in Gautam Gambhir\u2019s staff. He was sacked in light of the team\u2019s loss in the Australia series, though he continues to remain a key figure in several players\u2019 lives, not only Rohit.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">The likes of Dinesh Karthik and KL Rahul also regularly sing his praises and credit him for their batting improvement. During IPL 2025, after a good knock against the Chennai Super Kings, Rohit tagged and thanked Nayar via his social media. Nayar was back with the Kolkata Knight Riders in the middle of the 2025 season, but it remains to be seen if the franchise retains his services for the next season and beyond.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-ff263f4b724d470d jsx-2478874133 atbtlink fp\"><span>First Published:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rs\">\n<p>September 09, 2025, 23:44 IST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-ff263f4b724d470d jsx-2478874133 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/cricket\/\">cricket<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> Watch: &#8216;Meet My Stiff Friend&#8217;: Rohit Sharma Trolls Abhishek Nayar, Video Goes Viral<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f \">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
