One of the fans asks the former Indian captain in Marathi “Rohit bhaiya, vadapav pahije ka?“, which basically means “would you like a vada pav?”
Rohit Sharma immediately waves back, which could have either meant no or just an acknowledgement for the fans around him.
Rohit Sharma Gears Up For IND vs NZ ODIs
Rohit Sharma, at this stage in his career, only features for India in ODIs, and his upcoming assignment is a three-match series against New Zealand, an opponent he last met in the ICC Champions Trophy final, delivering a match-winning knock.
He last played for the Men in Blue in three matches against South Africa, at home, scoring two 57, 14, and 75 runs.
Prior to that he had toured Australia, again for three matches, where scored 8, 73, and an unbeaten 121 in Sydney.
Needless to say, fans would be hoping for the ‘Hitman’ to continue scoring big runs, especially with this home series against the Kiwis. The first match is scheduled to take place this Sunday, that is January 11, 2026.
