How Rohit Sharma made his wedding anniversary, wife Ritika Sajdeh's birthday special
India doubled the series lead on Friday, as a dominant side defeated Sri Lanka to clinch the series 2-0 with one game to play.
Mumbai: India batsman Rohit Sharma is in the best form of his life, after having scored a quick-fire century off just 35 balls in the second T20 against Sri Lanka on Friday.
Earlier, Rohit had smashed his third double ton in ODIs during the second one-dayer against Thisara Perera’s men. In fact, it happened to be his second wedding anniversary, after having tied the knot with Ritika Sajdeh in 2015.
He had a special reason to celebrate his match-winning century on Friday as well.
Ritika had celebrated her birthday on Thursday, and Rohit followed that up with another ton on Friday as the birthday gift to his wife.
Earlier, the 30-year-old top-order batsman had taken to Twitter to wish her on her birthday.
Generally if it’s someone’s birthday you’ll go try and be with them but that’s not the case with my Mrs, poor thing always travels to me on occasions and makes sure the travel time is well spent, very lucky to have a wife like her. Happy birthday love ðŸ'– @ritssajdeh

Rohit had also taken to Instagram to share a photo of the duo, for which he has captioned ‘There you go, my lucky charm’.
