IPL 2024: Hardik Pandya opens up on his relationship with Rohit Sharma over Mumbai Indians’captaincy change row
Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya today addressed the controversy surrounding the captaincy change that erupted inside the team when Rohit Sharma was dropped as the leader of the team to make room for the Gujarat Titans’ returning all-rounder.
After deciding to join Guajrat two year sago, Hardik was signed as a trade. During a Monday press conference hosted by the Mumbai Indians, Hardik said that he doesn’t anticipate any unpleasant situations involving Rohit.
Hardik said on his comeback that it’s a surreal feeling to be back. Since 2015, everything he had known has come from this experience. He further said, he never thought he would get here. He is looking forward to playing at the Wankhede, at his favorite venue.
Regarding the shift in captaincy, the all-round player said that he expects Rohit’s hand on his shoulder whenever he needs it.
The former Gujarat Titans captain said, the fact that Rohit Sharma is the captain of Team India benefits him, he just carrys on what Sharma accomplished with this team. Hardik said he knows he will always have Sharma’s hand on his shoulder because he has played under him in his entire career.
Hardik said that he only likes to think on the things he can control, despite the fact that the fans’ feelings over the captaincy change conflict have occasionally been unpleasant.
He continued saying, he is going to bowl. Although he respects the feelings of fans, but there are things he cannot control. He said, he appreciate them, but he’ll concentrate on his duties as captain.
In response to a question about whether he and Rohit had spoken since the captaincy switch, Hardik said that the Hitman’s continues travels had prevented them from having a meaningful conversation.
Due to his trip, he has’t had much time to speak with Rohit. When he connects with the squad, he will undoubtedly catch up, he said.
Meanwhile, under Rohit Sharma’s captainship Mumbai Indians won the IPL trophy for 5 times.
