A touching moment recently unfolded when Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma granted a long-time fan’s wish for an autograph after a decade of waiting. This heartwarming encounter took place on December 1, 2024, during a practice match against the Prime Minister’s XI at Manuka Oval in Canberra.
The fan, who had been eagerly anticipating this moment for ten years, captured Rohit’s attention by chanting, “Rohit bhai please, dus saal ho gaye yaar” (Rohit brother, it’s been ten years). This heartfelt plea resonated with Rohit, prompting him to approach the fan and sign an autograph on his bat. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) shared this emotional exchange on social media, highlighting the significance of the occasion for both the player and the supporter.
In addition to this memorable interaction, Rohit Sharma participated in the practice match where he batted at No. 4 but was dismissed for just 3 runs. Despite his brief innings, India successfully chased down the target set by the Prime Minister’s XI, showcasing a solid team performance ahead of their upcoming Test series against Australia.
This incident not only exemplifies Rohit Sharma’s humility and connection with his fans but also underscores the joy that sports can bring to individuals, creating lasting memories and fulfilling dreams.
