Former South Africa player AB de Villiers has made a bold prediction that Rohit Sharma will hand over the captaincy of the Mumbai Indians team to Hardik Pandya. De Villiers humorously suggested that if Pandya returns to Mumbai Indians for Rs 15 crore, Rohit Sharma will step down as captain. In a YouTube video, de Villiers said, “I think Rohit Sharma will allow Hardik Pandya to be the captain. There is a lot of pressure on Rohit Sharma as the captain of the Indian team.”
This prediction comes as great news for Mumbai Indians, as Pandya has been a star player for the team for many years. De Villiers also highlighted that Pandya enjoys playing at the Wankhede Stadium. Pandya is currently the captain of the Gujarat Titans team in the IPL, and it is reported that Mumbai Indians will acquire him again by spending 15 crore rupees.
It is worth noting that the Gujarat Titans won the IPL title under Hardik Pandya and made it to the finals last season, only to lose to M.S. Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings. However, Pandya suffered a leg injury during the ODI World Cup match against Bangladesh, causing him to miss several matches. In his absence, Suryakumar Yadav will lead Team India in the Twenty20 series against Australia.
The potential change in captaincy for the Mumbai Indians has certainly stirred up excitement and speculation among cricket fans.
