During the T20 World Cup 2024 warm up game between India and Bangladesh, a fan breached security to meet India captain Rohit Sharma while Bangladesh was batting. The incident took place at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Saturday, June 1.
A video making rounds on X (formerly Twitter) shows a fan running to meet Rohit Sharma on the field, only to be tackled by USA police. He was handcuffed by the officers as Rohit seemingly asked them to be lenient with the fan.

Rohit Sharma has a huge fan following in world cricket. He recently led India to the 2023 ODI World Cup final last year. He also took the team to the semifinals of the 2022 T20 World Cup, where they lost to the eventual champions, England.
This is likely to be Rohit Sharma’s last T20 World Cup appearance, and he will give his all to lead Team India to glory, as his age and recent dip in form make it unlikely for him to feature in the next edition.
