Despite the franchise’s decision to unceremoniously sack five-time IPL champion Rohit, the majority of Mumbai Indians fans continue to support him.
There are reports that the senior players in the Mumbai Indians squad are unhappy with Hardik Pandya’s captaincy style.
Abhishek Nayar’s conversation with Rohit Sharma
Rohit Sharma had a serious conversation with his former Mumbai teammate Abhishek Nayar in a viral video. He said MI is changing one by one, adding that it depends on the management.
On the backdrop of constant chanting by the fans at the stadium, the former MI captain could be heard telling Abhishek, “Ek ek cheez change ho raha hai. Woh unke haath mein hai, main ye sab pe dhyaan nahi deta.”.
In addition, Rohit Sharma said that whatever the situation, it is his home and the temple he has built.
The video shows Sharma telling Abhishek, “Jo bhi hai woh mera ghar hai bhai, woh temple jo hai na maine banwaya hai.”.
Kolkata Knight Riders shared a video of Rohit Sharma and Abhishek Nayar’s chat on its X handle (formerly Twitter), but later removed it.
IPL 2024: Rohit Sharma’s lacklustre performance
The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 has seen former Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma struggle with the bat.
Rohit failed to deliver his best performance after scoring a century against Chennai Super Kings at Wankhede Stadium.
Rohit Sharma was dismissed for 4 runs off 5 balls in the last match against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
Over the last five games, the right-handed batter has scored 6, 8, 4, 11, 4, and accumulated just 33 runs at an average of 6.6.
He hasn’t played well in his last few games, which makes people worry about his fitness before the T20 World Cup 2024, which starts on June 1 in the USA and the West Indies.
Rohit Sharma has scored 330 runs in 12 games, with a hundred among them. His average is 30 and his strike rate is 152.78.
