Rohit Sharma gives autograph on a fan’s art straight after MI practice session for IPL 2025 [Watch]

Team India and Mumbai Indians (MI) stalwart Rohit Sharma recently gave an autograph to a fan on his art after a practice session ahead of IPL 2025. The 37-year-old cricketer was last seen on the field during the 2025 Champions Trophy in Dubai earlier this month. Rohit won his second ICC trophy in nine months as captain, with India beating New Zealand in the final to win the 2025 Champions Trophy.

Rohit Sharma went on a family vacation to the Maldives after the Champions Trophy to rejuvenate himself after a few hectic weeks of action. After returning to Mumbai, he joined the MI camp to begin preparations for the upcoming season.

A fan posted a video on X (formerly known as Twitter) that showed a glimpse of Rohit Sharma's kind gesture off the field after an MI training session at the Wankhede Stadium. In it, the Indian captain could be seen giving an autograph on a fan's art while donning his MI training gear.
