Okay. This has gotta to be the funniest error on cricinfo I have come across. After countless typo's and major errors, they've actually screwed up big time here :p.

In an article titled Twelve hopeful men, dated 3rd November 2009, when you click on Rohit Sharma's hyperlinked name, it shows him to be a Nepali citizen who plays for Nepal Under-17s. :rtfl

Here's the link to Rohit Sharma's "NEPALI" profile - Rohit Sharma | Cricket Players and Officials | Cricinfo.com :laugh

Turns out they messed up with his profile even in Feb, 2007 :p.

Oh Cricinfo! :sarcasm
 
That's ridiculous lol.

It's such a big site, so happens.
 
Wow, this is thread worthy isn't it :sarcasm
 
Rohit Sharma did actually play for the Nepal U19 team.
 
This is Some Other Rohit Sharma

Batsman
Selected as a top order batsman, 17-year-old Sharma from Nepalgunj can be dangerous if he gets going. Sadly, he played only single match in this World Cup. Sharma, who can also bowl a bit, was a member of the Under-17 side to ACC Trophy held in Bangladesh earlier this year.
 
I wasn't sure if its the same person, they kinda look similar seeing as thats quite an old pic.

If it is a different person then Cricinfo hasn't made an error at all with that profile ;)
