Irfan Pathan criticizes Hardik Pandya: Irfan Pathan has once again criticized Mumbai Indians team captain Hardik Pandya. Irfan has raised questions on his captaincy. Whereas Wasim Jaffer has supported Hardik Pandya. The situation of Mumbai Indians is bad in IPL 2024. The team is in 9th place and has lost seven matches. The chances of Mumbai Indians reaching the playoffs this season are also very slim, as the team can only score a maximum of 14 points.
Pathan criticized Pandya
Former all-rounder Irfan Pathan posted on Instagram after the match played between Lucknow Super Giants and Mumbai Indians and wrote that last year Jasprit Bumrah was not in the qualifying team Mumbai Indians but the team has got his services this season. However, the team is in this position. Because the team is not managed properly on the field. Team captain Hardik Pandya has made many mistakes. This is true.
Wasim Jaffer supported Hardik Pandya
Whereas former Indian Test opener Wasim Jaffer has supported Hardik Pandya. Posting on X, he wrote, 'No matter how much you criticize his performance, it is very disappointing to see the constant personal trolling and criticism.' Hardik Pandya, have courage. Next month you will play an important innings in the World Cup and these people will appreciate you. Hardik Pandya has been selected for the T20 World Cup and he is the vice-captain.
Hardik Pandya's individual performance and the team's performance as captain have not been good. He has scored 197 runs in the 10 matches played so far in IPL 2024 and has taken only 6 wickets as a bowler. The team's performance is in front of everyone because the team has lost seven out of 10 matches. There are only 6 points in the account and the team still has to play four matches. No team can qualify for the playoffs on its own.
