While there were multiple eye catching moments in the match, it was Rohit Sharma's pitch invader incident that caught everyone's attention.
When Team India were fielding, a fan invaded the New York stadium and went onto hug Team India's skipper. Seeing this, US authorities came running in the ground. Two American Police officers brutally slammed the fan on ground and tried to hand cuff him in front of Rohit Sharma. Seeing the brutality, Rohit Sharma gestured towards the dressing room and called someone. Team India skipper also requested US Police officers to go easy on the pitch invader as he was mere a fan.
