There is speculation about Mumbai Indians batsman Rohit Sharma leaving the franchise. After Mumbai's last match of the current season against Lucknow Supergiants, this news gained more momentum when Rohit was returning to the pavilion after being out and the crowd present at Wankhede Stadium gave him a standing ovation. Now the team's head coach Mark Boucher has broken his silence on Rohit's future and revealed what he discussed with the former captain.
'No one knows what will happen next'
Boucher said, to be honest, there has not been much discussion about Rohit's future. I caught up with him to do a little review of this season and I asked him, what are you looking forward to? On that Rohit said that he is thinking about T20 World Cup, which is right. For me, Rohit is the master of his own destiny. There is a big auction going on for the next season and no one knows what is going to happen next.
Rohit scored the most runs for Mumbai in the current season.
Rohit Sharma's form may have been a matter of concern this season, but he was the highest run-scorer for his team in IPL 2024. Rohit scored 427 runs in 14 innings at an average of 32.07, which included one century and two fifties. Rohit's most successful season for Mumbai was 2016 when he crossed the 400-run mark and now after 8 years he has achieved this feat again.
'Hardik got into trouble due to the uproar of the fans'
Boucher says that this season, Hardik Pandya, who became the captain of Mumbai in place of Rohit, also had to face difficulties due to the booing of the fans. “It's not a good feeling to hear that kind of reaction from fans,” Boucher said. I was feeling very bad for Hardik. It is not easy at all to go through such an experience. There are many things we need to discuss. There were a lot of things going on around Hardik that were affecting his plans. It was a difficult time for Hardik as captain.
Hardik's performance this season has been disappointing
The current IPL season has been disappointing for Hardik in many ways. Hardy could not leave an impact not only as a captain but also as a player. Hardik has scored 216 runs in 13 innings this season at an average of 18. Apart from this, he could not do anything special with the ball and could take only 11 wickets in 12 innings. During this period its economy was 10.75.
