India may have endured a forgettable day against New Zealand in the fourth ODI, but Rohit Sharma managed to produce a moment that brought smiles to cricket fans.
A video circulating on social media shows the hitman playing hide and seek with his children during Friday's match at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui.
Rohit's wife Ritika Sajdeh was watching the match with their two children, Samaira and Ahaan, when the cricketer spotted them from the pavilion balcony.
And what followed was a lovely family moment.
Rohit was seen playfully hiding behind the dressing room doorway before peeking out towards his children, apparently trying to entertain them.
His children responded with smiles and laughter, while Ritika also appeared amused by her husband's playful behaviour.
The moment was captured on camera and subsequently shared on social media, where fans enjoyed seeing a different side of the Indian batting star. It was a beautiful moment.
A difficult day for Rohit and India
The heartwarming moment came during an otherwise disappointing outing for the Indian team.
Chasing New Zealand's imposing total of 333, India suffered a shocking collapse as Matt Henry dismissed Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and captain Shreyas Iyer for ducks in the opening over.
Rohit departed off the very first delivery, while Kohli and Shreyas also failed to open their accounts.
