Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma and his wife Ritika Sajdeh have announced the birth of their second child on Saturday. Rohit shared the joyous news on Instagram with a playful tribute to the famous sitcom Friends. He posted a photo with the caption, “The FAMILY, the one where we are four,” referencing the show’s iconic theme. The date “15.11.2024” in the post confirmed the birth of their newborn.
The couple’s first child, a daughter named Samaira, was born in 2018. The arrival of their second child has kept Rohit from traveling with the Indian cricket team to Perth for the upcoming Border-Gavaskar series against Australia. The series begins on Nov 22, with the first Test at Perth. It is still uncertain whether Rohit will participate in the opening match. Meanwhile, fellow cricketer KL Rahul and actress Athiya Shetty recently announced they are expecting their first child in 2025.
The highly anticipated India-Australia series includes five Tests, with the first match starting on Nov 22. The second Test will be played in Adelaide, followed by matches in Brisbane, Melbourne, and Sydney. Fans are eagerly awaiting this thrilling contest between two cricketing giants. India’s squad for the series includes Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Jasprit Bumrah, and others.
