Former Team India captain Rohit Sharma is constantly in the headlines these days. Recently, he was removed from the captaincy of the Indian ODI team and this responsibility was given to Shubman Gill in his place. But Rohit got a place in the ODI team for the Australia tour. Along with this, speculations about his and Virat Kohli’s retirement are also continuously increasing. Amidst all this, the star opener is busy in his preparations for the Australia tour. Rohit is continuously practicing in Mumbai, but during the preparations, Rohit got into such trouble that his special friend Abhishek Nair had to come to his rescue.
Before the ODI series to be held in Australia from October 19, Rohit is working hard on batting practice and fitness. In this connection, he had reached the famous Shivaji Park ground of Mumbai on 10th October, where ‘Hitman’ showed his batting skills. Rohit spent a long time batting during practice in the nets. As soon as they heard the news of the former Indian captain reaching Shivaji Park, hundreds of fans reached the ground to see him and then what, they applauded and applauded every single shot of Rohit and the fans who were making noise felt relieved in their hearts after seeing their star batting.
Fans surrounded Rohit, Abhishek Nair saved him
But while the fans were happy to see their dream come true, the situation became a bit troublesome for Rohit. It so happened that when Rohit was leaving Shivaji Park after finishing his practice, the way was completely blocked by a huge crowd of his fans outside the gate. The fans wanted to get another glimpse of their star, they wanted to take Rohit’s photo, wanted to get his autograph. Due to this, Rohit could not come out for a long time and at such a time, his close friend and former coach of Team India Abhishek Nair had to come out to control the situation. Abhishek Nair kept requesting the fans to let Rohit go out. This had its effect and after a lot of effort the former Indian captain was able to come out and return to his home.
