While Rohit has never publicly expressed his love for luxury automobiles, he has built an amazing collection of cars, including BMW M5 (Rs 1.99 crore), Mercedes-Benz GLS 400d (Rs 1.58 crore), Mercedes-Benz S-Class (Rs 1.98 crore), Lamborghini Urus SE (Rs 4.57 crore) and Range Rover HSE LWB (Rs 3.68 crore).
He recently bought the Lamborghini Urus SE, his most expensive car yet, which sports a personalised number plate with 3015 written on it.
Rohit is known for leaving a personal touch on his automobile assets.
His latest Lamborghini Urus SE with 3015 number plate denotes the birth dates of his children. While Rohit's daughter Samaira was born on December 30, 2018, his son Ahaan entered the cricketer's life on November 15, 2024.
Interestingly, the two dates add up to '45', which is Rohit's Indian jersey number.
Despite a prolonged break from playing duties since the end of IPL 2025, the India and the Mumbai Indians cricketer has been in the headlines, with speculations rife over his future at the international stage.
Already retired from Tests and T20Is, the graceful batter continues to make himself available for ODIs.
However, with age not on his side, several reports have claimed Rohit's spot and leadership in the 50-over setup could be reassessed by the team management and selectors ahead of India's next ODI assignment in October on the tour of Australia.

India gets relief as China removes export restrictions on rare earth magnets
After months of speculation, Beijing has withdrawn its export restriction on rare earth magnets to India. The move is some respite for automakers and component makers, especially those engaged in electric vehicle (EV) projects, who were in the hot seat due to the supply chain squeeze. Personalised Offers on Mahindra BE 6 Check Offers Check Offers India depends on China for over 80 per cent of its magnet imports (Photo is representational)(AP File) Why rare earths matter Rare earth magnets may not sound like the backbone of the auto sector, but they quietly are. From electric traction motors to power steering, sensors and infotainment units, they are ubiquitous in a contemporary vehicle. EVs specifically depend on motor-grade magnets to drive production lines forward. (Also read: Tata Motors faces no production impact of rare earth magnet crisis, Q1 FY26 profit tanks 63%: CFO PB Balaji) China's dominance in this space has been well known, it accounts for the lion's share of global supply. That is why when Beijing imposed restrictions, Indian manufacturers had little choice but to either pay more for limited stock or explore alternative sources in markets like Japan and Australia. The impact of the clampdown The curbs, though in place for only a few months, left a mark on the industry. Automakers working on new EV launches saw delays creeping in as suppliers struggled to secure enough material. Some dipped into stockpiles, but those reserves were thin. Alternatives from outside China were available, but at a steep cost. For many companies, the episode was a wake-up call that India's electrification roadmap could be derailed by external shocks. (Also read: India's Bajaj Auto flags lower-than-planned EV output on rare earth magnet crunch) What changes now With the ban lifted, sourcing is expected to stabilise and costs may begin to cool in the coming quarters. For EV makers in particular, the move translates into fewer bottlenecks in the supply of motors and related components. However, the larger issue has not gone away. The dependence on a single nation for a key input makes the auto industry of India vulnerable to subsequent disruptions. Relief with a warning The resumption of Chinese exports has relieved near-term anxiety, but the incident served as a wake-up call. Resilience will take more than praying for steady flows of trade. Pundits say that India now needs to ramp up processing of rare earths and diversify supply streams. Automakers' message is unequivocal, relief now is a good thing, but long-term stability will come only from breaking dependence on Beijing.

After Rohit Sharma, Shreyas Iyer tipped as ODI skipper over Shubman Gill (Agency Photos) Shubman Gill currently serves as India's Test captain and was recently named the vice-captain of the T20I team for Asia Cup 2025. He also holds the position of vice-captain in India's ODI team. Gill has shown impressive leadership skills in his first Test series as captain against England. Many former players and cricket experts view him as India's future captain across all formats.
