Indian team captain Rohit Sharma was obliged to sign autographs for the Indian fans in New York ahead of the encounter against the hosts USA at the Nassau County International Stadium on June 12. In a video that has been doing rounds on social media, Rohit was surrounded by a set of enthusiastic Indian cricket fans. As soon as the crowd spotted the Indian captain, they reached out to Rohit in order to get a glimpse of him and potentially get an autograph. While the security personnel was trying his best to keep the crowd away, Rohit was entering the car alongside wife Ritika Sajdeh and daughter Samaira. However, the fans’ persistent requests for autographs led to Rohit obliging to the fans’ request.
In a heart-warming gesture, Rohit interacted with the fans before he headed off into the car alongside his family. It is not possible for Indian cricket stars to move even on the foreign streets alone, leave alone India. Even in a foreign country, Indian players get surrounded by their countrymen, seeking selfies and pictures with them. The USA has been home to many Indians, who have been settled here for so long. It must have been great opportunities for the Indian cricket fans residing in the Americas to connect to the Indian players and also get to see them play live from the stands. IND vs USA: Live Score

India’s USA challenge
“Yesterday’s game was awesome,” a fan could be seen saying, probably referring to India’s win against Pakistan by 6 runs in a closely-contested match.
“Thank you guys, Thank You,” Rohit said.
India have won both their matches in the Group A match as they look to advance to the Super 8 stage of the T20 World Cup 2024. India will look to nullify the USA scare to smoothly advance to the next stage.
