Sources close to the cricketer said December 13 has been chosen because the Indian team has no commitments during that time. The Test series against South Africa ends on December 7 in Delhi.
Ritika, a sports events manager, and Rohit were engaged in May this year. Rohit, 28, proposed to 28-year-old Ritika at the Borivali Sports Club in Mumbai, the ground where he began his career.
Rohit is the record holder for the highest run score in One-Day-International cricket history (264 against Sri Lanka at the Eden Gardens). He has known Ritika for the last six years. She manages his cricket engagements.
After their engagement, Rohit had tweeted a picture with Ritika (wearing the engagement ring) and wrote: "From best friends to soulmates, couldn't get any better."
Ceremonies on December 13 will be a half-day affair in a Bandra five-star hotel. Sachin Tendulkar is expected to bless the couple.
