It is an open secret that India’s ODI and Test captain Rohit Sharma has a poor habit of forgetting things. His teammates have already spoken about it a lot in the media before. When he encountered a question on similar lines during BCCI Awards 2025 in Mumbai on Saturday, Rohit came up with a funny response that left everyone in splits. During an interaction at the event, women’s team player Smriti Mandhana asked Rohit if he had picked up any hobby recently that his teammates tease him about. “I don’t know. They tease me about forgetting. Obviously, it’s not a hobby but this is what they tease me about – that I forget my wallet, and passport – which is absolutely not true. That happened a couple of decades back,” said Rohit.
Mandhana then asked Rohit about the biggest things he has ever forgotten.
“I can’t say that!” said Rohit with a laugh. “If this is coming live, my wife will be watching, and I can’t say that. I will keep that to myself,” added the India captain leaving everyone in splits.
