IPL 2024: Rohit or Hardik, Who will lead Mumbai Indians in the IPL 2024? After the IPL 2024 Retention, Hardik Pandya officially joined Mumbai Indians ahead of IPL 2024 Auction from Gujarat Titans in an all-cash deal, which is undisclosed by both franchises.
The Star All-Rounder was previously part of Mumbai Indians but moved to Gujarat Titans in IPL 2022. Now, he has returned to his previous franchise, Mumbai Indians. With this, a question arises: who will lead Mumbai Indians in the IPL 2024?
Hardik Pandya was the captain of Gujarat Titans for the seasons, and now, he has moved to the Mumbai Indians, which puts a question mark on whether Rohit Sharma will lead Mumbai Indians. As per the reports, Rohit will lead Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024, but it is yet to be confirmed.
Hardik Pandya will lead Mumbai Indians in the upcoming seasons as the franchise took him as their future captain after Rohit Sharma. Hardik Pandya joined MI in IPL 2015, and since then, he contributed a lot to the team in various aspects till IPL 2021.
Hardik Pandya IN, Cameron Green OUT ahead of IPL 2024 Auction:
Mumbai Indians put a lot of effort into including Hardik Pandya in their team ahead of the IPL 2024 Auction. MI was struggling with the purse, which led them to release Cameron Green, whom they bought in the IPL 2022 Mega Auction for 17.5 crore. Green has performed phenomenally in the IPL 2023, but the franchise has no option to retain him.
Under the leadership of Rohit Sharma, Mumbai Indians won five IPL trophies, which makes them one of the most successful IPL franchises. Rohit Sharma has his own legacy with Mumbai Indians as both captain and player. He gave a lot to the team and is expected to do well in the upcoming seasons as well.
Hardik Pandya played two seasons for Gujarat Titans as a captain, and GT won one IPL title under his leadership. GT was in the final of IPL 2023 but unfortunately lost the match against Chennai Super Kings in a close contest.
Both the players are good, and they lead their respective teams very well, but Rohit Sharma will always be an important factor for the Mumbai Indians, either as captain or a mentor in the future. As of now, Rohit will be leading MI in the IPL 2024, whereas Hardik will lead MI after IPL 2024.
