Earlier taking to his Instagram, Rohit had shared pictures of the shoe with the message "The ocean is my happy place. It's a world like no other and it must be protected. One of the biggest threats to our ocean health is plastic! it is polluting our oceans and it's not just our marine life that's paying the price. Our well-being is HUGELY dependent on our oceans. No oceans, no human life. The smallest and most effective step you can take - Don't throw trash in the ocean and stop those around you from doing so."
Rohit wrote "Together with @adidasIndia we are here to take charge to create a sustainable planet. For every run I score in this year's IPL, @adidasIndia will pick up 10 plastic bottles from the beaches in Mumbai."
