Hardik Pandya and Rohit Sharma are going to be in a weird situation over the next three months. Hardik, having returned to his Indian Premier League alma mater, will be Rohit’s captain for Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024.
In June, Hardik will play under Rohit’s captaincy during India’s mission to regain the T20 World Cup.
Hardik, in his first official interaction as the Mumbai Indians captain, insisted that there will be no awkwardness between the two. “It won’t be any different because he is going to always be there to help me out. That he is the captain of Indian squad will help me because of what this team (MI) has achieved has been under him,” said Hardik, with head coach Mark Boucher by his side, on Monday.
