Indian ODI skipper Rohit Sharma revealed how he proposed to his wife Ritika Sajdeh for marriage. The couple has been married since December 2015 and is blessed with one girl and a boy. Rohit, who was last seen in action during the recently ended IPL 2025 appeared with his wife on Who’s The Boss podcast on YouTube by former cricketer Harbhajan Singh and his wife Geeta Basra.
Speaking on a podcast, Rohit Sharma revealed that he took Ritika to a place where he started playing cricket and went on his knees to propose to her on the middle of the pitch. “My proposal was quite romantic. I took her to the place where I started playing cricket. We were here only (somewhere along Marine Drive apparently). She had brought food from home. We ate it. So, I was just sitting. Then I told her let's go out to eat ice cream, I'm bored. Then we took the car out, we left. We left from Marine Drive, crossed Haji Ali, Worli. So, she asked where is the ice cream shop? She does not know anything after Bandra. I told her there's a good one in Borivali, where I live. You've never come, so let me show you," Rohit said.

Speaking further, Rohit Sharma revealed that he asked his friend to set up everything on the ground to capture the moment where he proposes Ritika for marriage. After that, he went on his knees in the middle of the pitch and proposed to her.
“It was a ground and it was pitch dark and she didn't realise it was a ground. Then I had already told my friend to set up something there at the ground and just be there to capture the moment. We parked the car. Then I went on my knees, in the middle of the pitch. Then, I proposed to her," Rohit said.
