Win Projections to be updated soon
Speaking on the daily sports show “#AAKASHVANI” on JioCinema, Aakash Chopra discussed Rohit Sharma’s leadership role and Hardik Pandya selection as Mumbai Indians captain. The IPL 2024 auction is scheduled to occur in Dubai on December 19.
In addition, on December 18 at noon, JioCinema will webcast a mock auction with celebrities like Suresh Raina, Anil Kumble, Mike Hesson, Eoin Morgan, Robin Uthappa, and others to offer fans a taste of what to anticipate on auction day and to assess possible tactics.
About the selection of Hardik Pandya to captain the Mumbai Indians
It’s my understanding, not some insider information, Aakash Chopra. It’s possible that captaincy had a factor in Hardik (Pandya’s) decision to leave Gujarat. Without a doubt, Rohit Sharma would have also been informed of this decision. The future intentions of the Mumbai Indians would have also been explained to Rohit. I think Ashish Nehra played a big part in helping Hardik become the Gujarat Titans captain. Mumbai has its work cut out for it. I don’t think Hardik is a full product as a captain yet; therefore, they need to contribute at a different level for him to mimic them on the field.
About the MI captaincy of Rohit Sharma
Rohit is a legend, says Aakash Chopra. There’s an end to an era. In his ten years as team captain, he won five IPL championships. Both fame and hard work were bestowed upon him for this. But eventually, you have to start planning for the future. Given the high bar they have set for themselves, MI has, to be honest, had mediocre performance over the past two years.
Giving someone a chance when it’s appropriate is vital, but knowing when to let go of someone is even more crucial. Social media has been buzzing with talk about how Rohit ought to have been given the freedom to depart on his own terms or even given a chance to captain MI for one game before Hardik was asked to step in. For my part, I disagree with it. A team is greater than any individual.
