Team India skipper Rohit Sharma's interaction with a fan went viral amid the opening Test against New Zealand at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. With the fan asking the right-handed batter which IPL team he is going to play for in the 2025 edition, he responded by saying 'Kaunsa chahiye bol' (Which one do you want?).
Since Mumbai Indians' disastrous IPL 2024 campaign and Rohit's sudden removal from the captaincy position, there have been rumours that the veteran could jump ship. However, recent reports have indicated that Rohit is one of the players Mumbai Indians are set to retain ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction.
Meanwhile, the fan in the below inteaction had hilariously requested the 37-year-old to come to RCB for IPL 2025:
Rohit Sharma is the joint most successful IPL captain:
Rohit had first become captain in the middle of the 2013 edition as Ricky Ponting stepped down to handle over the leadership duties. The year 2013 saw the Nagpur-born cricketer win his first IPL crown as captain and won four more in 2015, 2017, 2019, and 2020. MS Dhoni, who won his 5th IPL crown in 2023, equalled Rohit that year.
The success in IPL meant that he became India's all-format captain in late 2021. The 37-year-old captained the Men in Blue to the 2023 World Cup final and won the country's second T20 World Cup crown in June this year.
