Mumbai Indians ace batsman Rohit Sharma once again took everyone’s heart, not with the bat this season but with a generous act off it. The 38-year-old cricketer presented his blue Lamborghini Urus to a lucky supporter on Monday as a promise fulfilled in a Dream11 advertisement seen before IPL 2025.
The vehicle, worth about ₹4 crore, is anything but ordinary—it’s Rohit’s trademark vehicle for years and is well known because of its number plate “264,” a dedication to his world-record ODI score. Humble and witty, Rohit had also humorously announced in the Dream11 advertisement that he would donate his Lamborghini Urus to a contest winner. In a video gone viral now on social media, Rohit is seen delivering the keys with the SUV in the background, a luxurious one at that, keeping his word in style.

Rohit Sharma Bids Farewell to Test Cricket
This touching gesture comes at a critical juncture in Rohit’s career. He had recently retired from Test cricket following a bountiful career that saw him amass 4,301 runs, 12 centuries, and 18 half-centuries in 67 matches. His fellow veteran teammate Virat Kohli too announced his farewell to the red-ball version before India’s England-bound five-Test series.
Mumbai Indians Chase Final Playoff Spot
When Rohit’s off-field charity is hogging the limelight, things on the field are equally engaging. Five-time IPL winners Mumbai Indians (MI) are engaged in a desperate fight for the last playoff spot. Having 14 points from 12 matches, they have a do-or-die encounter against Delhi Capitals (DC), who are placed just behind with 12 points from an equal number of games.
The playoff situation is evident—if MI beat DC on Wednesday, they get a playoff spot. But if DC win, both teams would be depending on the result of their last few games, especially against Punjab Kings. Gujarat Titans, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and Punjab Kings have already booked their playoff spots.
With the league stage about to reach its cliff-hanger conclusion, Rohit Sharma keeps reminding us of himself on and off the field, coding yet another page from his illustrious book of memories.
