Mini bio
How it started.
Rohit’s route into cricket ran through Borivali in Mumbai. In a Times of India interview, he recalled that money initially kept him out of a nearby academy. Coach Dinesh Lad backed his talent, and a scholarship at Swami Vivekanand International School made it possible for him to study and play there. He progressed through the under-14, under-16 and under-19 levels.
Finding his stage.
India’s victorious 2007 T20 World Cup campaign brought him wider attention. He later played for Deccan Chargers before joining Mumbai Indians in 2011. As captain, he led Mumbai Indians to IPL titles in 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019 and 2020.
Innings fans remember.
At Eden Gardens in November 2014, Rohit scored 264 from 173 balls against Sri Lanka, setting the men’s ODI individual scoring record. He went on to score five centuries at the 2019 World Cup and won the ICC Men’s ODI Cricketer of the Year award for 2019.
A new chapter.
He captained India to the 2024 T20 World Cup title and retired from T20 internationals after the final. The 2025 Champions Trophy followed, with Rohit earning Player of the Match in the final. After retiring from Tests in May 2025, he continued in ODIs, became a T20 World Cup ambassador and added television hosting to his work with Family Full House with Rohit Sharma in 2026.
