Abhishek Sharma, the opener for Sunrisers Hyderabad, was involved in an unexpected off-field incident in Jaipur when a video surfaced on social media showing a fan grabbing his hand. In the video, Sharma is seen walking through a crowd of fans when a woman suddenly pulls his hand towards her, causing him to appear visibly startled. Security personnel quickly intervened to manage the situation and move Sharma away from the crowd. The woman was later identified as Himshikha Tripathi, who shared the video on her Instagram account with a caption suggesting she did it because Sharma was not agreeing politely. The incident drew criticism online, with many users emphasizing that public figures should not be touched without consent. Tripathi later explained that she only wanted to shake Sharma’s hand but accidentally grabbed it in the rush of the crowd. She expressed that the moment was misunderstood and apologized for any hurt feelings. Tripathi has disabled comments on her Instagram post.
