Cricketer and Team India captain Rohit Sharma has been reportedly issued multiple fines after he was found guilty of driving recklessly on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway recently. It is reported that Rohit was on his way to Pune to join fellow team members ahead of the India vs Bangladesh match in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023.

According to a report in Pune Mirror, Rohit was slapped with three fines after traffic officials found him driving at lightning speed. The 36-year-old explosive batsman was allegedly rushing in his Lamborghini at around 200 kmph and even touched 215 kmph at a point in time. While the date of the incident is not known, it is being speculated that it took place on either Monday or Tuesday, earlier in this week.
