Mumbai Indians lost their third encounter of IPL 2024, at the hands of Rajasthan Royals on Monday night. Facing an in-form RR was one thing, and facing the reception the fuming fans was another.
Mumbai Indians fans have not cut any slack on the team management and their newly-elected captain, Hardik Pandya. The fans have been in solidarity for their former captain, Rohit Sharma.
Rohit Sharma was shrugged off his captaincy role MI management, ahead of IPL 2024. He was replaced Gujarat Titans’ 2021 IPL-winning skipper, Hardik Pandya.
The fans and supporters of Mumbai Indians, did their homework ahead of MI’s first home game of the season. The five-time champions played Rajasthan Royals at home, and fans thronged the Wankhede with posters of Rohit Sharma.
