Rohit Sharma shared a light moment where he was spotted consoling a kid, who started weeping in happiness after seeing his idol, the Indian skipper.
Guwahati: All the cricket-playing nations are looking forward to the 2023 World Cup, which will be held in India in October and November. India will take on Sri Lanka in the first ODI of the three-match series in Guwahati today. The men in blue have to settle all the issues at the earliest possible time.
Meanwhile, the regular skipper Rohit Sharma is once again back in the team after sustaining a thumb injury in the ODI series recently against Bangladesh.
Rohit Sharma shared a light moment where he was spotted consoling a kid, who started weeping in happiness after seeing his idol, the Indian captain.
Rohit can be seen in the video, telling the young fan to stop screaming while pulling his cheeks in affection.
The incident took place just after Rohit’s pre-match press conference in Guwahati. The kid was also assembled among the fans to catch a glimpse of Rohit Sharma.
Rohit said, “Rone ka kya baat hai, chota bacha hai tu.” What is the reason behind the cry? You are just a cute boy. Rohit then pulled the cheeks of the fan, and the two clicked selfies with each other.
The Indian skipper, who struggled with form and fitness last year, must be hoping for a great start to the year. His bat remained silent most of the time last year, but he would like to score heavily in today’s match against Sri Lanka and will try to maintain the momentum throughout the year.
