Team India skipper Rohit Sharma was recently seen attending an event in Dallas, Texas, in the United States of America. He had a big security team by his side, as fans gathered in large numbers to catch a glimpse of the star cricketer.

The video of the incident was shared by one of Sharma's fan clubs on the microblogging platform X (formerly known as Twitter). You can watch the clip below:

It is worth mentioning that Rohit Sharma inaugurated his CricKingdom Cricket Academy in Dallas on Wednesday, July 17. Apart from the United States of America, Sharma's cricket academy has its units in India, Singapore, Australia, Indonesia, and Bangladesh.

Over 600 people attended the launch of the CricKingdom Cricket Academy in Dallas. Sharma is enjoying a short break after captaining India to a title win in the recently concluded 2024 T20 World Cup.

Sharma was the leading run-getter for the Men in Blue at the showpiece event, chalking up 257 runs across eight innings at a strike rate of 156.70. After India's seven-run win over South Africa in the final, the seasoned campaigner announced his retirement from T20Is.


Rohit Sharma is likely to make himself available for India's upcoming ODI series against Sri Lanka

Rohit Sharma could next be seen in action during India's upcoming tour of Sri Lanka. According to a report by The Indian Express, Sharma and Virat Kohli will feature in the 50-over matches of the tour.

The two Asian sides will compete in three T20Is and as many ODIs. It is set to be the first assignment of Team India's new head coach Gautam Gambhir. The report suggests that Gambhir has requested senior players like Sharma and Kohli to make themselves available for the Sri Lanka series, given that there aren't many ODIs on the road to the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy.

India's T20I and ODI squads for the Sri Lanka tour are expected to be announced on Thursday, July 18. The T20I series kicks off at Pallekele on July 27, while the ODI series will begin at Colombo on August 2.
