Watch: Rohit Sharma ends fan’s 10-year-long wait for an autograph in Canberra

An ardent fan of Rohit Sharma checked into Manuka Oval, called out his names multiple times before breaking into a "Mumbai cha raja" chant to attract the India captain's attention, and get his autograph, which he was seeking for the past 10 years.

All his hard work -- and tactic -- was worth the effort as a smiling Rohit duly obliged and ended the fan's "decade-old" wait by signing him an autograph after India's comfortable victory in the warm-up game against Prime Minister's XI  on Sunday. "Rohit bhai please, dus saal ho gaye yaar (it's been 10 years). Rohit bhai Mumbai cha raja (king of Mumbai)," the fan stood out with his plea.

The BCCI also took note of it.

"The wait of a decade finally ends. A fan waited for 10 years to get a @ImRo45 autograph and yesterday was his lucky day," the BCCI shared the video on its social media page.
