Hardik Pandya: On the one hand, Hardik Pandya is a part of Team India in the T20 World Cup being played in the West Indies and is currently busy preparing for the final against South Africa. Meanwhile, taking a big decision, Indian Premier League franchise and five-time title champion Mumbai Indians (MI) has decided to change its captain.

Mumbai Indians is now going to appoint a new captain after removing Hardik Pandya from the captaincy. In such a situation, this player, not Hardik Pandya, may be seen captaining the Indian Premier League 2025 season.

Rohit Sharma will captain MI, not Hardik Pandya

Mumbai Indians, one of the most successful teams in the history of the Indian Premier League, has once again decided to change the captain. Mumbai Indians have won five titles under the captaincy of their former captain Rohit Sharma.

However, before IPL 2024, Mumbai Indians removed Rohit Sharma from the captaincy, but now after seeing the brilliant performance of captain Rohit Sharma in the T20 World Cup and his captaincy, the management of Mumbai Indians can take the captaincy from Hardik Pandya and hand over the captaincy role to Rohit Sharma again. If this happens, then Rohit Sharma can get another trophy for Mumbai Indians.

Hardik Pandya may get the captaincy of T20I

After the T20 World Cup, senior players including captain Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja may retire from T20 International. In such a situation, Hardik Pandya can get the captaincy of Team India's T20I. In such a situation, after the workload on Rohit Sharma is reduced, Mumbai Indians can once again hand over the captaincy to him. In such a situation, after leaving the T20I format, he will be able to give more time to the franchise.

At the same time, Hardik Pandya will be seen in the role of vice-captain in Mumbai Indians. In such a situation, both of them can be seen playing together for Mumbai Indians once again. However, it remains to be seen in this year's mega auction which players will the Mumbai Indians franchise retain. Because there are many such players in the team, who have been a part of the team for years and have consistently performed brilliantly for the team.
