Times of India profile mixes up Rohit Sharma identity with Indonesian T20I batter
Profile shows Indonesia international, not India captain
A player profile page on Times of India for Rohit Sharma displays career information that corresponds to an Indonesian T20I cricketer and not the Indian batting great. The page is headlined as Rohit Sharma Career Stats – Complete Records, Debut, ODI, T20, World Cup and IPL Performance, but the data shown is for a right-handed batter listed as representing Indonesia.
The profile lists nationality as Indonesia and date of birth as 2 May 1986. The role is given as Batter with batting style Right Handed and bowling style Right-arm medium.
Debut and team information
Teams played are shown as Indonesia. The debut is recorded as T20I on 23 Jun 2026 against UZB at Singapore National Cricket Ground, Singapore. ICC Rankings & Ratings are shown as T20I Batting #362 with a rating of 142.

The mismatch between the headline referencing ODI, World Cup and IPL performance and the actual data presented, which is limited to three T20I appearances for Indonesia in 2026, indicates a data mapping or profile duplication issue on the site.
