News India Live, Digital Desk: Rohit Sharma is known as ‘Hitman’. He is the captain of the Indian cricket team and the most successful leader of Mumbai Indians in the IPL. Fans of Mumbai love him with love as ‘Mumbai Cha Raja’ (King of Mumbai). But recently a video of him has surfaced, which has won the hearts of every Indian by rising above the craze of IPL.
It happened that Rohit was going somewhere and some fans were very excited to see him. He started shouting slogans of ‘Mumbai Cha Raja, Rohit Sharma’ loudly, as he often does in the stadium.
But as soon as Rohit listened to these slogans, he did something that no one expected. He immediately gestured with his finger and stopped the fans and smiled and said with great love- “Say India, India.”
Patriotism was heavy on IPL
This small gesture of Rohit gives a very big message. It tells that the identity of IPL and more than the team is the honor of the country. He is the captain of the Indian cricket team and perhaps he wants that whenever a player is playing for his country or preparing for it, he should be recognized only and only by the name of ‘India’.
Video went viral on social media
Just what then! This heart -touching video of Rohit spread like fire on social media. People are praising Rohit’s ‘India First’ thinking. Fans say that the same thing makes Rohit Sharma not just a great player, but also a true leader and patriot.
This incident took place when Team India is preparing for the Test series against Bangladesh. In such a situation, the entire focus of the captain is only and only on Team India and his style proves this.
