The IPL 2024 season kicked off with a thrilling start, but it’s the drama surrounding the Mumbai Indians that’s stealing the spotlight.
Mumbai Indians, a team tied with CSK for the most IPL trophies (5 each), has come under scrutiny from netizens following comments made by Mark Boucher.
With Hardik Pandya named captain, Mumbai Indians find themselves in the midst of controversy. Despite Rohit Sharma still being part of the team and a successful captain with 5 IPL trophies to his name, his exclusion from the captaincy role is causing a stir.
Sources indicate that the Mumbai Indians dressing room is now divided into two factions, with Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Tilak Verma, and others on one side, and Hardik Pandya, Ishan Kishan, and others on the other.
This division sheds light on the inner workings of the management. While Akash Ambani was spotted conversing with Rohit Sharma, it’s evident that Hardik Pandya was the preferred choice for captaincy among the management and owners.
