Things are not going well for Mumbai Indians and that is no secret anymore. The change of team captaincy from Rohit Sharma to Hardik Pandya has left a bitter taste among some fans. As a result, Hardik will have to face boos and jeers from the crowd no matter which stadium he plays in the 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL). There are suggestions that Rohit may leave MI before the 2025 IPL season. While such suggestions are premature, Lucknow Supergiants appear to be interested in signing the India skipper.
In a video on their YouTube channel, LSG can be seen mulling over Rohit Sharma in the IPL 2025 mega auction.
In the video, the interviewer can be heard asking LSG coach Justin Langer which player he would sign if he could sign anyone.
“I want someone? Well… if I could have anyone… who do you think?” Lange asked him what he thought instead. The interviewer continued: “We’ve covered most of the bases. But do you think you can get Rohit Sharma?”

Lange looked shocked and said: “Rohit Sharma? Hahaha. We are going to get him from Mumbai… Well, you’d better be the negotiator.”
Mumbai Indians first signed Rohit Sharma in the 2011 IPL. During his 13 seasons with the team, Rohit won 5 IPL titles with MI and captained the team to titles in all these tournaments. It’s unclear what the killer has in mind for the future. However, with the mega auction set for next season, it’s fair to say that Rohit’s stay with Mumbai Indians might not last beyond this season.
