New Delhi. After losing the captaincy from the hands of Rohit Sharma, the anger of the fans towards Hardik Pandya is still not decreasing. Fans roasted him many times on the field. It has been more than a week since IPL started. But Hardik is continuously getting roasted on social media. R Ashwin has given the example of Sachin Tendulkar and MS Dhoni and explained that when Sachin Tendulkar can play under the captaincy of Dhoni then why not under the captaincy of Rohit Hardik.
R Ashwin said, “I am not able to understand that if you do not like a player and insult him, then what is the need to give clarification to any team for this. We behave as if this has never happened before. Sourav Ganguly has also played under Sachin Tendulkar and Sachin Tendulkar has also played under Sourav Ganguly. He has also played under the captaincy of Rahul Dravid.
IPL 2024: Not 1 or 2, a total of 5 players from this country are out of the tournament, someone’s grandmother has passed away and someone…
Ashwin further said, “All three of them have also played under the captaincy of Anil Kumble and all of them have played under the captaincy of Dhoni. When all these greats can play under the captaincy of Dhoni. Dhoni can play under the captaincy of Virat. So what is the problem in this? Have you seen fans of Joe Root and Jack Crowley fighting among themselves in any other country? This is madness. You would never have seen fans in Australia fighting over Steve Smith and Pat Cummins.”
Mumbai Indians have faced two defeats so far in IPL 2024. On March 27, Mumbai had to face its second consecutive defeat. Mumbai, captained by Hardik Pandya, was defeated by Sunrisers Hyderabad by 31 runs in the match played in Hyderabad. Earlier, Mumbai also had to face defeat in the match against Gujarat Titans. Mumbai’s performance under Hardik’s captaincy has not been anything special so far.
