'Difference' In Hardik Pandya, Rohit Sharma's Tweets Sees Huge Fan War Triggered

Mumbai Indians finally got a win under their kitty in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 campaign, beating Delhi Capitals by 33 runs on Sunday. In what was the first victory for Hardik Pandya, as the full-time skipper of Mumbai Indians, it was the late blitzkrieg by West Indian all-rounder Romario Shepherd that won MI the match. After the game, skipper Hardik was undoubtedly elated while his predecessor Rohit Sharma also shared a social media post, celebrating the team's first win of the season. However, fans found another reason to quarrel because of the two posts shared by Rohit and Hardik.

The 'two-team' theory at Mumbai Indians has been quite talked about, with rumours suggesting that one unit is led by Rohit while the other by Hardik. Some fans saw an opportunity to fuel the 2-team theory after Rohit and Hardik shared their own perspectives of the win against Delhi Capitals.

"Off the Mark", wrote Rohit on X (formerly Twitter) while Hardik said: "We're up and running".
