India's ODI captain Rohit Sharma, double Olympic medallist PV Sindhu, and former Indian cricketer Suresh Raina on Thursday expressed shock and extended their prayers for the safety and well-being of all those aboard the ill-fated Air India flight that crashed near a residential area close to Ahmedabad airport.

Flight AI 171, which was carrying 232 passengers and 10 crew members, went down just minutes after departing from the airport at approximately 2 PM, leading to fears of multiple casualties.

The Boeing aircraft, seen rapidly losing altitude, crashed in the Meghaninagar locality, sending thick plumes of black smoke billowing into the sky, visible from several miles away.
