Emotional moment: Rohit Sharma breaks down at daughter’s school annual day
Indian cricket star Rohit Sharma is widely admired for his aggressive batting and cheerful personality on the field, but off the field, he also has a deeply emotional side that fans rarely see. Known for keeping his emotions in check, Rohit has only occasionally been seen shedding tears, such as when India lost the 2023 ODI World Cup final under his captaincy. Recently, a heartwarming video of him went viral, showing the seasoned cricketer getting emotional at his daughter’s school function.
Rohit attended the annual day celebration at his daughter Samaira Sharma’s school, and during the event, a patriotic song brought tears to his eyes. While the audience enjoyed the performance, Rohit couldn’t hold back his emotions as “Ae Mere Watan Ke Logon” played on stage. The video captures him quietly wiping away his tears, proving once again that the “Hitman” is not only a fierce competitor on the cricket field but also a devoted father and patriot. Fans and viewers took to social media to applaud Rohit for this heartfelt moment.
Rohit Sharma Dominates in Vijay Hazare Trophy
The emotional moment didn’t slow him down on the cricket field. On December 24, 2025, in the opening match of the Vijay Hazare Trophy, Rohit Sharma lit up the stadium with a spectacular innings. Representing Mumbai, he smashed 155 runs off just 94 balls, leaving bowlers struggling and fans in awe. His innings included 18 boundaries and 9 sixes, showcasing his intent and form ahead of the 2027 ODI World Cup. Thanks to his explosive performance, Mumbai cruised to an eight-wicket victory in their tournament opener. However, in the very next match, Rohit’s bat was silent as he was dismissed for a duck on the very first ball, reminding everyone of the unpredictable nature of cricket.

Matching a Legendary Record
Rohit’s performance also saw him equaling a remarkable world record held by Australia’s iconic opener David Warner. In List A cricket, Rohit has now matched Warner’s feat of scoring 150+ runs in an innings nine times. Warner achieved this in 210 matches, amassing 8,886 runs and hitting nine 150+ scores in the 50-over format. With this milestone, Rohit further cements his place among the elite batsmen in the world. Cricket fans can look forward to seeing him continue his dominant form in the upcoming ODI series against New Zealand in January 2026, where he is expected to deliver more breathtaking boundaries and sixes.
