Rohit Sharma, Ritika Sajdeh welcome baby boy
Mumbai: India cricket captain Rohit Sharma and his wife Ritika Sajdeh have been blessed with a baby boy, according to sources. Social media reports from fans shared the news on Friday night, which has now been confirmed. The couple, already parents to five-year-old daughter Samaira, are yet to make an official announcement or disclose details about the birth.
Rohit had stayed back in India and did not travel to Perth with the Indian team for the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia, set to begin on November 22. This sparked speculation about his availability for the initial matches.
During a pre-departure press conference, head coach Gautam Gambhir stated, “At the moment, there’s no confirmation. Hopefully, he will be available. We’ll let you know.” If Rohit misses the first match, vice-captain Jasprit Bumrah is expected to take over as captain.
Rohit’s absence also raises the question of who will open the batting, with Abhimanyu Easwaran and KL Rahul being potential candidates already in Australia.
The Border-Gavaskar Trophy series opener is highly anticipated, with fans eager to see how the Indian team adjusts to these developments.
