[Watch] PBKS give fans a glimpse of Jitesh Sharma and Atharva Taide's hotel rooms
Punjab Kings (PBKS) anchor Shashi Dhiman recently raided Jitesh Sharma's hotel room and gave fans a tour of the cricket star's room. Sharma's teammate Atharva Taide also featured in the video shared by the franchise on their social media handles.
During the room tour, the 28-year-old wicketkeeper-batter mentioned that he consumes a lot of dry fruits. Sharma also cheekily stated that it helps in hitting big sixes on the ground. The talented player also revealed that he prefers to put a new grip on his bat before every match, which is why he carries a lot of them with him.
The Punjab-based franchise also gave fans a glimpse of Atharva Taide's room. The youngster revealed that he is carrying a jar full of 'laddoos' made by his mother while on the road for the 15th edition of the Indian Premier League.
PBKS captioned the post:
"Does Atharva have an informant? 🤔 🎥 Tune in to the latest episode of Kings' Officer as Shashi discovers a major difference between our 🦁s Atharva and Jitesh 😯 #SaddaPunjab #IPL2022 #PunjabKings #ਸਾਡਾਪੰਜਾਬ #KingsOfficer."
Atharva Taide is yet to make his debut for PBKS. Jitesh Sharma, on the other hand, has featured in eight matches so far in this year's cash-rich league. The right-hander has managed 124 runs and has an impressive strike rate of 156.96 to his name.
