New Delhi. If there is any biggest change seen in the IPL 2023 and IPL 2024 seasons, then it is that Rohit Sharma will be on the field, but will not captain. This is such a change in Mumbai Indians, which Rohit’s fans as well as many former cricketers are not able to digest. The biggest hero of World Cup 2011, Yuvraj Singh, is also included in these. Yuvraj believes that Rohit Sharma should have got another chance to captain Mumbai Indians.
Former cricketer Yuvraj Singh spoke openly to Star Sports before IPL 2024. Yuvraj called Mumbai Indians’ decision to make Hardik Pandya the captain as a strategic move. Also said that he would have liked to see Rohit Sharma as the captain.

Yuvraj Singh said, ‘Rohit Sharma has made his team win the IPL 5 times as captain. Removing them is a big decision. I think it would have been better to let Rohit Sharma captain for one more season. During this time, Hardik Pandya was made the vice-captain of the team and it was seen how the team was performing.
Mumbai Indians have traded Hardik Pandya to Gujarat Titans. Hardik Pandya has made Gujarat team win IPL. Gujarat Titans reached the finals for two consecutive years under the captaincy of Hardik Pandya. She won the title once and was runner-up once. On the other hand, Rohit Sharma has not only led Mumbai Indians to five IPL titles, but is also successfully captaining the Indian team.
