India’s veteran batter Rohit Sharma will play under Hardik Pandya for the first time when the five-time champion Mumbai Indians face Gujarat Titans on Sunday, March 24 in the IPL 2024. MI’s leadership has changed, with Rohit handing over the team’s reins to the returning Hardik, who previously served as captain of the Gujarat Titans for two successful seasons. Pandya finally addressed the topic on Monday during MI’s pre-season IPL press conference, revealing an intriguing piece of information.

The newly-appointed MI captain claimed that he is yet to speak with Rohit about the captaincy move. First of all, it won’t be different he is going to be there to help me out if I need his help. At the same time, you have also mentioned he is the captain of the Indian cricket team which helps me because this team has achieved under his belt, and from now onwards it is going to be what he has achieved I will just carry forward that, Pandya said.

So, I don’t think it will be awkward or anything different. It will be a nice feeling because we have been playing for 10 years, I have played whole my career under him, and yeah, I know he is going to have a hand on my shoulder always throughout the season, the 30-year-old all-rounder added.

Rohit has been traveling and he has been playing continuously. We’re all professionals and by the time the team comes together, we will be playing. It’s been only a couple of months since we’ve seen each other, and as mentioned, whenever our IPL preparation starts, which from today through a practice match, and once he comes, we will have a chat, Pandya concluded.
