Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma isn’t just known for his prowess on the field but also for his charming persona and witty banter off it. Recently, on The Great Indian Kapil Show alongside teammate Shreyas Iyer, Rohit showcased his humorous side once again, sharing amusing anecdotes and engaging in delightful banter, including a heartwarming exchange with his wife, Ritika Sajdeh.
When asked if he ever refrained from hitting sixes because of his partner, Rohit shared a charming story involving Ritika, highlighting her significance in his life. With a grin, he said, “While others may have their girlfriends at the stadium, I have my wife watching. She sits with her fingers crossed the whole match. So, she’s more important to me.”
In a playful exchange, host Kapil asked Ritika if it was tougher to manage Rohit as a cricketer or as a husband. Ritika’s witty response stole the show as she jokingly remarked that managing Rohit as a husband was the real challenge, contrasting it with the structured support system he has as a cricket captain. “As a husband. As a captain, he has his team to manage him. I don’t have to do anything,” she quipped.
In a lighthearted comeback, Rohit humorously declared Ritika the captain of their household, highlighting the contrast between leading a cricket team and managing a marriage. “She can’t enter the field nor the dressing room, but I have to enter the house. She is the captain there,” Rohit joked.
Beyond the laughter, the banter between Rohit and Ritika reflects the strong bond and mutual support they share. Ritika’s unwavering support for Rohit, especially during recent controversial moments, underscores the strength of their relationship both on and off the field.
