Rohit Sharma was born on 30 April 1987 in Bansod, Nagpur, Maharashtra, India.His mother, Purnima Sharma, is from Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. His father, Gurunath Sharma, worked as a caretaker of a transport firm storehouse. Sharma was raised by his grandparents and uncles in Borivali because of his father's low income.
He would visit his parents, who lived in a single-room house in Dombivli, only during weekends.He has a younger brother, Vishal Sharma.His mother tongue is Telugu.
In November 2013, during Sachin Tendulkar's farewell series, Sharma made his Test debut at Eden Gardens in Kolkata against West Indies and scored 177, the second-highest score on debut by an Indian to Shikhar Dhawan.
He followed it up with 111 (not out) in the second Test at his home ground, the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
Languid and easy on the eye, Rohit Sharma owned all the shots in the book when he emerged from the Mumbai suburbs as heir apparent to the Indian batting greats of the 2000s. It took him time and persistence, but by the 2010s he had.
become a colossus in white-ball cricket, and the man in charge of perhaps the most formidable league team in the first age of T20..
