India opener Rohit Sharma, who is also popularly known as the ‘Hitman’ for his on-field exploits, is enjoying a short break from cricket after the conclusion of the Leeds Test. The 34-year-old stepped out with his wife Ritika Sajdeh, India’s Test vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane, his wife Radhika Dhopavkar and pacer Shardul Thakur. Sharing the snap on his official Instagram account on Tuesday, Rohit, who is India’s limited-overs vice-captain, wrote, “Good vibes only.” The post soon created a buzz on the Internet as fans started trolling Shardul for being the fifth wheel on their double date.
Responding to the picture, a fan wrote, “Shardul Thakur, the fifth wheel.”
“From the third wheel to the fifth wheel… Shardul Thakur acing single life,” read another comment on the post.
Replying to the post, a Mumbai Indians (MI) fan wrote, “Hello, captain.”
Another cricket enthusiast urged Rohit to score a double ton in the next Test.
“Please score a double hundred in the fourth Test Rohit,” the user wrote.
Earlier, Ritika had shared a photo featuring herself, Rohit, Shardul and her brother Kunal on Instagram as they explored England.
“My three favourite boys,” Ritika wrote in the caption box of the post.
