While specific details, including the exact time of birth, remain unclear, the reports gained momentum online, becoming a trending topic among fans. Many cricket enthusiasts expressed joy over the news, while some wondered whether this development might affect Sharma’s participation in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
