Fan Runs Onto the Field to Meet Rohit Sharma During Match – Watch the Video
The immense fan following of Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma is well-known. Amidst growing criticism of star players underperforming, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has instructed several players to participate in domestic cricket tournaments. Following this directive, Rohit Sharma turned out for Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy, drawing large crowds of fans eager to catch a glimpse of the cricketer.
During the match between Mumbai and Jammu & Kashmir at the BKC Ground in Mumbai, a fan created a stir by sprinting onto the field to meet Rohit Sharma, who was fielding at the time. The fan managed to reach the cricketer and briefly interact with him before security personnel intervened and escorted the individual off the field.
Rohit Sharma, along with teammates Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shreyas Iyer, represented the Mumbai team in this match. This was Rohit’s return to domestic cricket after nearly a decade, an event that drew significant attention. However, his performance in the match left fans disappointed, as he managed only 3 runs in the first innings and 28 in the second. Yashasvi Jaiswal also underperformed, scoring 4 and 26 in his two innings.
