India skipper Rohit Sharma left an indelible impression on Ranjeet Singh, a local traffic police officer, during his recent visit to Indore for the second T20I match against Afghanistan.
Ranjeet Singh is known for his dancing style of managing traffic in Indore and had previously met Rohit and requested his autograph but was unable to receive it due to his duties. This time around, Rohit not only remembered the encounter but also made a special effort to express his appreciation for Ranjeet.
Rohit Sharma penned down his autograph along with a heartfelt message, entrusting it with the team bus driver to ensure it reached Ranjeet.
The traffic police officer took to social media to show his gratitude to Rohit Sharma and praised the cricketer for his humility and stating that a player's greatness is not solely defined by their sportsmanship but also by their compassionate thinking.
"When the Indian team came to Indore for the last time, I met India's captain Rohit Sharma ji. I asked him for his autograph but I could not take him due to duty, but the captain remembered this. This time while going he gave his autograph and his love towards me in words and gave it to the driver sir and told him to give this crazy man Ranjeet. Hearty thanks captain sir for your love.. A player does not become great only by sports, similar thinking makes him great," the Police officer wrote the entire episode in his post.
