IPL 2024: Two players may be angry with Hardik Pandya's captaincy

The drama that started when Hardik Pandya was given the captaincy of Mumbai Indians before IPL 2024 is still continuing. Fans booed Hardik several times during the Mumbai Indians match. But now it seems that perhaps some players of the team are not happy with Hardik being made the captain. Many cricketers have also expressed their opinion on this issue. Now famous cricket commentator Harsha Bhogle has also given his opinion about Hardik.

Bumrah and Surya are angry with Hardik's captaincy!

Ahead of the IPL 2024 auction, Mumbai Indians added Hardik Pandya to their squad through a trade from Gujarat Titans. But the surprise came when Mumbai Indians management suddenly declared Hardik as the new captain of the team. Fans got angry with this and started trolling Hardik. Many fans have unfollowed Mumbai Indians on social media. Now in this matter, Harsha Bhogle has claimed on his YouTube channel that players like Suryakumar Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah are also not happy with this decision. Because after Rohit, Bumrah and Surya are the most senior players in this team. Apart from this, Surya has also captained Mumbai before. While Bumrah is the vice-captain of the Indian team. He has also captained India in Tests.

What did Harsha Bhogle say?

Gautam Gambhir recognized Surya's potential and made him the vice-captain of Kolkata Knight Riders a long time ago. Surya must be thinking that if not Rohit then why not me. Bumrah might also be thinking something similar. Since he has captained the Test team, he is a brilliant bowler, reads the game well and is the most important player in the Indian team currently. Looking at all these things, it seems that both the players are angry with Hardik's captaincy.

Harsh Bhogle's advice to Mumbai Indians

Bhogle advised Mumbai Indians that anyone involved in the drama should not pay attention to what is being said on social media. Although it is not easy to do, I tell this to every young player. I'm saying this from the fans' perspective because the fans are the soul and heart of this game. Despite all these circumstances, all players should try to make their team win.

Former cricketer gave advice

Former Indian cricketer S Sreesanth has also given a statement in this matter. When he was asked whether Rohit Sharma is really uncomfortable with Hardik's captaincy. On this he said that Sachin Tendulkar, who is called the God of Cricket, has also played under the captaincy of Mahi Bhai and we have also won the 2011 World Cup. As much as I know Rohit, I don't think he will pay attention to all these things and try to bat openly. Apart from Sreesanth, other players including Sehwag have also defended Pandya's captaincy.
