**Perth, Australia – November 16, 2024** – Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma and his wife Ritika Sajdeh are celebrating the arrival of their second child, a baby boy. The happy news was shared by Sharma himself on social media, posting an animated image of a family of four with the caption, “We are four now.” The couple, married since December 2015, already have a daughter, Samaira, born in 2018.
The birth, which occurred Friday evening at a Mumbai hospital, has prompted an outpouring of congratulations from fans, celebrities, and politicians alike. Social media is buzzing with well-wishes and playful comments speculating about the child’s future in cricket. Some users even jokingly suggested he’d be destined for the World Cup (WPL) or Indian Premier League (IPL).
Sharma’s paternity leave plans remain uncertain. Although he initially opted out of the first match of the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Test series against Australia, starting November 22nd in Perth, his participation remains a strong possibility. If he’s unable to play, Jasprit Bumrah is expected to captain the team in his absence. The exciting news comes just days before the highly anticipated series.
