AHMEDABAD: Clashes broke out in the gallery during the Mumbai Indians-Gujarat Titans match on Sunday. During the match, some people are fighting, punching and arguing with each other. Although the cause of the conflict is not clear, it is being interpreted in the social media as a clash between the fans of Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya.
Ever since Hardik Pandya returned to his old stomping ground Mumbai Indians from Gujarat Titans, things have not been smooth sailing for the former champions. Ever since Rohit, who was arguably the best captain in the IPL and led Mumbai Indians to the title five times, was removed from the captaincy, the team’s fan support has dwindled.
Lakhs of fans have unfollowed the Mumbai team’s social media pages in protest over Rohit’s removal from the captaincy. A few scenes of this sequence were staged in the pageant and the gallery. The video of Hardik gesturing to Rohit to go to the boundary line and Rohit asking through the gesture whether it’s for me is being widely circulated.
From the moment Pandya, a native of Gujarat, arrived to toss in the match, the crowd welcomed him with boos. Every time Pandya appeared on the TV screen during the match, the crowd erupted in cheers. Hardik was lashed out by the Gujarat fans protesting his return to Mumbai and the Mumbai fans accusing him of usurping Rohit’s captaincy. After this, the video of the conflict in the gallery has now come out.
