Rohit Sharma’s new Lamborghini

NEW DELHI: Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma has added a brand-new red Lamborghini Urus SE to his garage in Mumbai. The new luxury car sports a personalised number plate — 3015 — a nod to his children’s birthdays and a clever link to his iconic jersey number 45. His earlier car bore the plate 264, representing his record-breaking highest ODI score.The 3015 plate combines ‘30’ for his daughter Samaira’s birthday (December 30) and ‘15’ for his son Ahaan’s birthday (November 15). Together, they add up to 45, the number Rohit has proudly worn throughout his cricketing career.The Lamborghini Urus SE boasts an 800hp engine, 950Nm of torque, and can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds. Its ex-showroom price is reportedly Rs 4.57 crore.

On the cricket front, Rohit last played competitively for Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League (IPL). He is expected to feature in the ODI series against Australia in October — a series that could mark his final appearance in international cricket.

Speculation over the ODI futures of both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli continues, though the Indian cricket board is in no hurry to make decisions on their careers. With the Bangladesh series in August cancelled, India’s next ODI assignment will be the away series against Australia from October 19 to 25. Whether Rohit and Kohli will play ODIs after that tour remains uncertain.
