Rohit Sharma ‘will go to a franchise that’s better for him’: Former MI star accepts big dig

Will Rohit Sharma leave Mumbai Indians after IPL 2024? This is the kind of speculation currently dominating the minds of viewers. There will be a big auction before IPL 2025. Big auctions often lead to changes in the team equation as most players are released. With Rohit Sharma being relieved of the captaincy and Hardik Pandya being appointed at the helm of Mumbai Indians, there has been a lot of discussion about the move. While talking about this topic, former Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings player Ambati Rayudu made an interesting observation.

“At the end of the day, it is Rohit’s decision. Wherever he wants to go, he will go. All teams will love to have him and have him as captain. It is Rohit’s decision. I am sure he will join the team here It would be better for him than what happened here,” Ambati Rayudu said on Star Sports.

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.”
