Vishal Sharma's Childhood with Rohit

The captain of the Indian cricket team is in the form of his life and one person who couldn't be any prouder is his brother, Vishal Sharma. From childhood, the brothers used to play cricket together.

The one time he did speak to the media, he mentioned how his brother is asked for photographs everywhere he goes, but he doesn't mind it at all.

Vishal also went on to say how the Hitman of the Indian cricket team always supports his entire family. When Rohit felt that he had made enough money to look after his family, he asked his father, Gurunath Sharma, to retire in 2006.
