In IPL 2024, the Mumbai Indians team captained by Hardik Pandya has lost 3 consecutive matches. Not only this, but the fans are also very angry with the Mumbai Indians for giving captaincy to Hardik Pandya. Former Indian cricketer Manoj Tiwari has given a big statement regarding Hardik’s captaincy. He has claimed that Hardik can be removed from the captaincy in the middle of IPL 2024. Let us tell you why he said this.
What Did Manoj Tiwari Say?
Hardik Pandya, as Mumbai Indians, cannot register even a single win so far. Due to this, questions are now being raised about his captaincy as well. Meanwhile, former Indian cricketer Manoj Tiwari even said in an interview that Rohit Sharma could be made the captain again.
Manoj said about the captaincy, “I want to say a big thing. I feel somewhere that the captaincy can be given to Rohit Sharma again, if possible, during this break. Now, this is very possible. It is a big thing, and as much as I understand the Mumbai Indians team, they do not hesitate to make decisions. It is not that the captaincy is very good or their luck is not on their side.”
Mumbai Indians Have Lost 3 Consecutive Matches
So far, under the captaincy of Hardik Pandya in IPL 2024, Mumbai Indians have played 3 matches and have faced defeat in all three. Meanwhile, Hardik proved to be very successful as a captain for the Gujarat Titans. He became the team champion in IPL 2022 when he got the captaincy. After this, GT was also taken to the finals in IPL 2023.
When Mumbai Indians handed over the captaincy from Rohit Sharma to Hardik Pandya, the fans did not like this decision of the franchise, and due to this, Hardik is being tromped by the fans during IPL 2024. Fans leave no opportunity to troll him when he comes on the field. Also, the stadium echoes the slogans of Rohit-Rohit.
