Canberra, Dec 2: An ardent fan of Rohit Sharma checked into Manuka Oval, called out his names multiple times before breaking into a Mumbai cha raja chant to attract the India captain’s attention, and get his autograph, which he was seeking for the past 10 years.
All his hard work – and tactic – was worth the effort as a smiling Rohit duly obliged and ended the fan’s “decade-old” wait by signing him an autograph after India’s comfortable victory in the warm-up game against Prime Minister’s XI here on Sunday.
“Rohit bhai please, dus saal ho gaye yaar (it’s been 10 years). Rohit bhai Mumbai cha raja (king of Mumbai),” the fan stood out with his plea.
The BCCI also took note of it. “The wait of a decade finally ends. A fan waited for 10 years to get a @ImRo45 autograph and yesterday was his lucky day,” the BCCI shared the video on its social media page.
In the video released by the BCCI, Rohit was seen interacting with fans, patiently signing autographs on bats and jerseys until this fan attracted the attention of everyone present at the venue.
India beat PM’s XI by six wickets in the warmup match which was reduced to 46-over-a-side contest due to inclement weather. Rohit batted at No. 4 in the match and was dismissed after making just three runs. (PTI)
