Reports emerged on social media Friday (Nov 15) night that the couple had been blessed with their second child.
Rohit and Ritika have a daughter Samaira who turns six on December 30. The exact time of birth is not known yet.
Team India players Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav and Sanju Samson extended their wishes to the parents. Speaking on BCCI.tv, the three of them congratulated Rohit, with Tilak saying he would soon meet the family.
Notably, Rohit did not travel with Team India to Australia for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy that begins on November 22. It wasn't made clear whether he would be leading the team in the first Test match to be held in Perth.
Before the team left for Australia, India head coach Gautam Gambhir told reportersthat there was still no official confirmation regarding Rohit's absence.
"At the moment there's no confirmation. Hopefully, he will be available. We'll let you know," Gambhir said at a press conference.
He did confirm that if Rohit misses the first Test match, vice-captain and fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah will lead the team.
This would also mean a chance for newcomer Abhimanyu Easwaran. "If Rohit is not available, we have got (Abhimanyu) Easwaran and KL (Rahul) in Australia. We will take a call," Gambhir said.
