Fans could not watch Vijay Hazare’s ‘Ro-Ko’ live, people got angry when BCCI shared a poor video.

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli scored brilliant centuries on the first day of Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025-26. However, fans could not watch these innings live. But after the match, BCCI shared the highlights video, which was of such poor quality that the board was trolled fiercely on social media regarding this video.

Rohit and Kohli’s blast

Rohit Sharma scored unbeaten 155 runs in just 94 balls against Sikkim in Jaipur. This included 18 fours and 9 sixes. This was his fastest century in List A. Mumbai won easily by 8 wickets. Whereas in Bengaluru, Virat Kohli scored 131 runs in 101 balls for Delhi against Andhra Pradesh, in which he hit 14 fours and 3 sixes.

After Kohli’s brilliant performance, Delhi won the match by 4 wickets. Virat left Sachin Tendulkar behind by completing 16,000 runs in List A. Also he scored 58th century.

Angry at not being shown live

There was no live telecast or streaming of both the matches. BCCI showed only selected matches. The fans were already angry because Virat’s match was played behind closed doors. Such negligence was not expected from the world’s richest board.

Trolling on bad video

After the match, BCCI shared clips of both their centuries, but the quality was so bad that it looked like CCTV footage. Fans started taunting in the comments itself. One wrote, ‘World’s richest board and 480p video?’, ‘Did you shoot with Nokia phone?’, ‘Is this CCTV?’

Even RCB trolled. There was a flood of memes and comments on social media. Users asked why HD in IPL and why this is the condition in domestic.

ro-co form

Both players are in good form. After retirement from Test and T20, the focus is on ODI. Rohit has batted brilliantly in recent matches. Virat is also scoring runs. But questions are being raised on the coverage of domestic cricket. It is expected from BCCI that there will be better arrangements in future, like live telecast of more matches and that too in good quality.
