Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma and his wife, Ritika Sajdeh , have been blessed with their second child , a baby boy , on Friday, November 15. The couple, who are already parents to their daughter Samaira, born in 2018, have yet to announce the delightful news to their fans and well-wishers formally. Rohit took a paternity leave to be present with Ritika during this special occasion, stepping away from training sessions in Australia ahead of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy .
The pair managed to keep Ritika’s pregnancy largely out of the public eye. The news only came to light recently, amidst speculation over Rohit’s potential unavailability for the first Test match in Perth. As the couple revels in the arrival of their newest family member, it remains uncertain if Rohit will be able to rejoin the team in time for the series opener.
While his absence might create challenges for the Indian squad, the joy of welcoming a new life understandably takes precedence. Fans and teammates alike are eager to see how Rohit juggles his familial and professional obligations during this critical phase. Even while prioritizing his family, Rohit has continued his preparations for the series.
He was recently spotted practising in the nets in Mumbai, ensuring he stays match-ready despite being away from the team. Rohit and Ritika, who tied the knot on December 13, 2015, in a grand ceremony attended by luminaries from cricket, sports, and entertainment, welcomed their first child, Samaira, in 2018. Six years later, the couple is overjoyed to expand their family once more with the birth of their son.
