Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who have not played a lot of T20 cricket since the 2022 edition, are expected to be on the flight to USA and Caribbean for the ICC showpiece. Former Indian cricket team star Navjot Singh Sidhu, who is set to be back in the commentary box after a decade with the upcoming IPL, has an interesting take on the duo's role for the 2024 T20 World Cup.
Former cricketer Parthiv Patel said on Tuesday that Hardik Pandya and Jasprit Bumrah had got the full backing of Rohit Sharma when they were struggling in the early part of their IPL stints at Mumbai Indians. Parthiv compared Rohit's leadership with CSK talisman MS Dhoni, saying the Mumbai cricketer never "made a blunder", while the Chennai captain had erred on a few occasions during his long IPL stint.
Mumbai Indians (MI) are gearing up for the new Indian Premier League (IPL) campaign, under the leadership of skipper Hardik Pandya. Hardik's appointment as the team's captain came after the franchise's bosses decided to relieve Rohit Sharma of his duties. Rohit joined the Mumbai Indians camp on Monday, and immediately started to prepare for the new season in the nets. The Hitman also shared a few pictures from the training session on social media, but there was no caption.
Indian cricket team batter Suryakumar Yadav took to social media to post a cryptic image that has left fans worried ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. There have been reports claiming that Suryakumar, who plays for Mumbai Indians, may miss the opening two matches of the competition. The batter is currently undergoing rehabilitation at Bengaluru's National Cricket Academy post ankle and groin surgeries. Although his social media post showed that he is getting back into shape, there is a possibility that he will not be available in time. Suryakumar posted a 'broken heart' emoji in his Instagram story on Tuesday and the post has left fans wondering whether the reports are actually true.
Star batter Suryakumar Yadav is certain to miss Mumbai Indians' IPL opener against Gujarat Titans on March 24 as he is yet to get fitness clearance from the National Cricket Academy (NCA). The world No 1 T20 batter Suryakumar has been stationed at the NCA in Bengaluru for his recovery and rehabilitation following a surgery for sports hernia. Suryakumar, who has been out of action since December, had a fitness test at the NCA on Tuesday but PTI understands that the 33-year-old needs "further assessment". His participation in the subsequent matches for Mumbai Indians — against Sunrisers Hyderabad on March 27, Rajasthan Royals on April 1 and Delhi Capitals on April 7 — would be determined at a later stage.
The 17th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is about to get underway in a few days with fans eager to see their favourite franchises back in action. Mumbai Indians (MI), one of the most successful franchises in the competition's history, will be gearing up for a fruitful season under their new captain Hardik Pandya. Last year, Mumbai Indians reached the Playoffs but a quick-fire hundred from Gujarat Titans' Shubman Gill in Qualifier 2 helped them beat the Rohit Sharma-led MI.
Hardik Pandya opened up about replacing Rohit Sharma as the Mumbai Indians skipper ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season and said that he did not get time to talk to the Indian cricket team skipper much about the topic as he has been touring lately. Pandya completed a sensational move from Gujarat Titans to MI and his appointment meant the end of Rohit's ten-year tenure as captain. In a recent event, Pandya was asked about whether he had the chance to discuss the change in leadership with Rohit and the India all-rounder had a clear answer.
A video posted by Mumbai Indians on social media has sparked a massive meme fest ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. The video featured all the MI cricketers in locations all around Mumbai along with team owner Nita Ambani and mentor Sachin Tendulkar. In the final few seconds of the video, the team posed for a picture with Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya sitting on a sofa in the middle. With the controversy surrounding Hardik's appointment as skipper in place of Rohit, social media users noticed a space on the sofa between the two cricketers and decided to come up with hilarious posts.
