Everything is not going well in the camp of Mumbai Indians in this year's IPL. The team is also out of the playoffs. The impact of the decision to change captaincy is clearly visible on the team's performance. According to reports, the team is now divided into two groups. Even the team's experienced players Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya do not respect each other.
Rohit-Hardik are rarely seen together in net practice.
According to a report, Rohit and Hardik were rarely seen practicing together during the entire IPL season. Rohit Sharma was batting in the nets before the defeat against Kolkata Knight Riders, but Hardik was not present at that time. Later, when Rohit was sitting with Surya and Tilak, Hardik came to the net. It is believed that after seeing Rohit, all three players got up and left.
Rohit Sharma's last season with Mumbai?
Apart from this, before the match against Kolkata, Rohit Sharma's conversation with the assistant coach of the opposing team, Abhishek Nair also became a topic of discussion. In this conversation, Rohit noticed the changes in Mumbai Indians after Hardik became the captain. He also said that this is his last season.
Since the mega auction is going to happen next season, Mumbai Indians are unlikely to retain Rohit. By making Hardik the new captain, the team has made it clear that it sees its future with this Indian all-rounder only.
