Latest News :- In the 14th league match of the ongoing IPL 2023 T20 series on April 1, Rajasthan defeated Mumbai by 6 wickets. Batting first in that match, Mumbai scored only 125/9 runs and gave up the win in the beginning itself. Captain Pandya scored 34 runs and Tilak Verma scored 32 runs. For Rajasthan, Trent Boult took maximum 3 wickets and Sahal took 3 wickets. Chasing 127 runs, Ryan Barrack scored 54* (39) to give Rajasthan an easy win in 15.3 overs. In this way Rajasthan registered its third win in 3 matches and reached the top of the points table.
Patient Action: On the other hand, Mumbai, under the leadership of new captain Hardik Pandya, has lost 3 out of its 3 matches and has registered a hat-trick of defeats. The Mumbai administration, which forgot to thank him for winning the first 5 trophies, appointed Pandya as captain this year, replacing Rohit Sharma.
Fans have been opposing it since the beginning. In such a situation, in the first match, Hardik Pandya forced Rohit Sharma to go to the boundary and field, which further enraged the fans. Hence Mumbai fans who were very dissatisfied, protested against Pandya who was still their captain in the match at Wankhede Cricket Stadium.
Then former Indian player Sanjay Manjrekar openly asked to support Hardik Pandya who came to throw the toss. But Mumbai fans, who did not hear all this, continued their protest against Pandya. So an embarrassed Rohit Sharma stood on the boundary line and made a polite appeal to the Mumbai fans: “Enough, stop protesting Pandya.”
Seeing this, fans are seeing Rohit Sharma as Unga Manasu Berisu Hitman asking Pandya to stop speaking against him from the same boundary line where he asked Pandya to field. However, even after facing 3 bad defeats, Mumbai fans are protesting against Hardik Pandya.
