Rohit Sharma son: Rohit Sharma, Ritika Sajdeh blessed with baby boy

Indian cricket team skipper Rohit Sharma has reportedly become the proud father of a baby boy, with the couple yet to make an official announcement about the newest addition to them. Rohit Sharma already has a daughter with his wife Ritika Sajdeh, who was born in 2018. As lately seen the skipper being away from cricketing action, which led to certain speculations over what had brought the Indian superstar to a break, the good news is now an end to all speculations. Ritika’s pregnancy, which has essentially been a behind-the-scenes affair during most of her pregnancy, came to light only when Rohit stepped out of the team this month.

This is a dividing line for Indian cricket. Having just returned from a beating in the ODI series at the hands of New Zealand, this is the India team’s chance to face off against the Aussies in the much-awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy. It can hardly wait to get Rohit back in the team, as both his leadership skills and batting will form the crux of India’s strategy. The team still appears to be searching for consistent openers, and the absence of Rohit has made things more complex for them.

Back-up opener Abhimanyu Easwaran’s poor showing in the practice matches and KL Rahul’s inconsistency forced some tough decisions from the team management. To make matters worse, Rahul suffered a minor injury to his right elbow while batting during a practice session. A pacer Prasidh Krishna blow kept Rahul out of the action for a brief period though all indication is that he will make it in time for the first game of the series.

The Border-Gavaskar Trophy presents a tough challenge for India, and they are eyeing victory in this series following the recent embarrassing setbacks. The return of Rohit Sharma would be a big boost for the side, and it is only that his arrival would make their batting line-up a little more potent. All the leadership qualities he has demonstrated outside the field may come in handy as he tries to influence India’s fortunes within this high-stakes series.

The cricketing fraternity waits for clarity as to whether Rohit will be available, while fans and teammates alike are celebrating the birth of his second child into an already joyous personal life. The second child brings with it yet another reason to be at his 100 percent best as he prepares for his second stint of leadership of the Indian team. Cricket fans can only hope for a quick turnaround from Rohit and the Indian team as they look to find their winning momentum once again against Australia.
