IPL 2024: Rohit Sharma Assumes Mumbai Indians' Driver's Seat, Video Sparks Internet Excitement
IPL 2024 Viral Video: Rohit Sharma, the star opener for both India and the Mumbai Indians, has once again captured the hearts of fans with his trademark humour, both on and off the cricket field. Renowned for his witty remarks during stump mic conversations and his jovial camaraderie with teammates, Sharma recently delighted his fans with a playful gesture.
In a video that went viral, the 36-year-old cricketer was seen taking the driver's seat in the Mumbai Indians' team bus, pretending to drive while urging the crowd to make way. His spontaneous act sparked joy among fans, who cheered enthusiastically at the sight of their favourite star enjoying a light moment amid the intensity of the IPL season.
The video quickly spread across social media platforms, eliciting a wave of reactions from fans. Memes, gifs, and amusing captions flooded the internet, adding to the jubilant atmosphere surrounding the incident.
Earlier this month, Sharma chose to drive his car to the Wankhede Stadium for the IPL clash against the Rajasthan Royals, eschewing the team bus. His car's number plate, 'MH01E00264,' gained attention on social media, with fans noting the significance of the last three digits.
These digits, '264,' hold special significance in Sharma's illustrious career, representing his highest ODI score achieved on November 13, 2014, against Sri Lanka. On that memorable day, Sharma smashed an incredible 264 runs, securing not only his personal record but also the highest individual score in ODI cricket history. His stellar performance played a pivotal role in India posting a formidable total of 404/5 against Sri Lanka.
In a recent interaction on a special edition of Breakfast with Champions alongside musician Ed Sheeran and host Gaurav Kapur, Sharma reiterated his commitment to cricket and his ambition to secure a World Cup victory for India.
"I haven't really thought about retirement. But, I don't know where life takes you. I am still playing well at this point in time - so I am thinking I am going to continue for a few more years and then, I don't know," Sharma remarked. "I really want to win the World Cup and there is a WTC final in 2025, hopefully India makes it," he added, emphasizing his dedication to achieving milestones in international cricket.
