During a T20 World Cup warm-up match in New York, a fan breached security to hug Indian captain Rohit Sharma. The incident occurred during Bangladesh's chase, with the fan managing to embrace Sharma before police tackled and handcuffed him. Rohit requested the police to handle the fan gently. This marks the third security breach involving Rohit this year. In the match, India triumphed over Bangladesh by 60 runs, with standout performances from Rishabh Pant and Hardik Pandya. Arshdeep Singh and Shivam Dube shone with the ball, restricting Bangladesh to 122 for nine.
