A young fan broke into tears after meeting the captain Rohit Sharma

Key Takeaways:

• Rohit Sharma was observed laughing with a young admirer. After seeing his idol, the young boy started crying, and Rohit Sharma was seen consoling him.

Rohit Sharma, the captain of India, was seen having a humorous moment with a young admirer. The youngster had broken down after seeing his idol, and Rohit Sharma was seen comforting him. 

Rohit can be seen jokingly pulling the child’s cheeks in a video that has gone viral on social media as he tells the child to stop crying.

In Guwahati, where India and Sri Lanka are scheduled to play the first ODI, the incident reportedly occurred shortly after Rohit Sharma’s pre-game press conference. A crowd of admirers had gathered to see the Indian captain, and the young child was present among them.

“Rone ka kya baat hai, chota bacha hai tu,” the Indian captain says in the video. You’re just a little boy; why are you crying?

He then tugged on the fan’s cheeks while uttering the phrase, “Itne mote mote gaal hai tere.” (You have cheeks that are so full.) The Indian captain also took selfies with the crowd.

Following his recovery from a thumb injury that kept him out for most of the Bangladesh tour, Rohit is returning to the team.

The Indian captain would like a strong start to the year because his performance last year wasn’t the best. In 2022, the Indian captain had trouble with his form and fitness. 

Rohit made 39 appearances across all formats despite missing significant amounts of cricket intermittently, but his bat remained silent on most of those occasions.

Rohit failed to surpass the 1000-run threshold for the first time since 2012, except in 2020, as he managed 995 international runs throughout the year. 

As the world came to a standstill due to the rising Covid cases around the world in 2020, Rohit had only made seven appearances.

Additionally, 2022 will mark the first time since 2012 Rohit will not notch a single tonne. His highest total was 76, which he achieved against England in the first ODI, which India won by a margin of 10 wickets in July. 

In the 39 games he played, he scored six half-centuries and was dismissed four times for a duck.
