Hardik Pandya is open to playing for Mumbai Indians under Rohit Sharma if his trade deal falls through. A report by The Indian Express said Hardik has no reservations about this setup. He replaced Rohit as captain before IPL 2024, but now both players might work together again soon.
Mumbai Indians could be heading into IPL 2027 with an interesting change in their leadership dynamic. Hardik Pandya is reportedly open to playing under Rohit Sharma again if a proposed trade move falls through. That would mean a return to a setup he was part of before taking over the captaincy.
According to a report by The Indian Express, Hardik is willing to stay at Mumbai Indians even if the trade deal doesn't go through. He also has no reservations about playing under Rohit's captaincy.
The possibility of the two working together again is an interesting subplot ahead of the new season. Hardik replaced Rohit as MI captain before IPL 2024, a decision that marked a major change at the franchise. If Hardik stays and Rohit returns to the captaincy, the roles could look very different this time around.
