He should pick some of his favourite stocks, and then short them all.

Rohit lost 12 of them

Probability of this happening is (1/2)¹² = 1/4096

That's 0.0244%

I think this record will remain untouchable for long, because It's purely luck(or maybe bad luck)

Imagine conspiracy theories if he had won 15 successive tosses - magnet in the coin, referees bought by BCCI, coin not falling on the mat and God knows what else?

Lots of comments here were saying toss was rigged when Rohit won the toss during 23 odiwc semifinal against NZ

Imagine the uproar if Rohit won 15 tosses in a row instead of losing

Rohit should be getting two chances with the toss. Afraid he will call wrong on both.

There was once an interview with Dhoni who had won like 8 tosses in a row but lost every game. He said he’d rather lose the toss and win the game.

Rohit is doing it.

Brohit realised that he still had a record to break about tosses. He wants to break records in a new field. Bro's a trailblazer

Honestly he has nothing to do with it skillwise so I wouldn't call that unwanted...it's actually cool...hope he can maintain the toss loss streak
