Rohit Sharma popularly known as Hitman demolished Sri Lankan bowlers in the second ODI, smashing his third double century and guiding India to 141 runs win over the visitors to level the series 1-1.
As he was hitting the Lankan bowlers all over the park in Mohali, one Sri Lankan fan back home was very happy for the openers’ incredible achievement.
For Sri Lanka’s super fan Mohamed Nilam, Rohit Sharma emerged as the ultimate hero as the India opener helped him return home to tend his ailing father, who needed a surgery for throat cancer.
Nilam was supposed to stay until entire series and didn’t have the means to book the return, that when Sudhir Kumar, Sachin Tendulkar’s iconic fan asked Rohit for help.
“I’m very thankful to Rohit Sharma for his help. He is a very nice man and has a good heart.
Not just Rohit, even Indian skipper Virat Kohli, who was in Italy for his wedding text Nilam and checked if he needed any help.
