Mumbai: All the focus is around Rohit Sharma this IPL 2024 after he stepped down as the Mumbai Indians captain. Following his move, he has found a lot of support from fans who want him to be reinstated as the captain of the MI side. After MI lost the first three games of the 2024 season, there were whispers that he could be leaving the side and would be up for the mega auction.
So, what if he is up for sale at the mega auction, will Lucknow Super Giants bid for him? LSG coach Justin Langer was asked this question during a session. To this, Langer was stunned and asked the anchor to do the negotiations. But Langer also said that he feels that is not going to happen.
After a couple of failures with the bat, Rohit was back in form as he hammered a breathtaking 49 off 27 balls to get MI off to a rollicking start against the Capitals. He also stitched an 80-run stand for the opening wicket with Ishan Kishan. But, it was a show of brute power from Romario Shepherd, who clobbered 39 runs in just 10 balls, including 32 runs in the final over against Anrich Nortje as MI amassed 234 for five.
With the win, MI get off the mark. Now they find themselves at the eighth position in the points table with a solitary win in four games. MI play RCB next on April 11 at the Wankhede.
