Five-time winners Mumbai replaced Rohit as captain before the IPL season started last month
NEW DELHI – Hardik Pandya has been facing the wrath of jeering fans in the Indian Premier League this season, with the Mumbai Indians struggling since he took charge from the much-loved Rohit Sharma.
In contrast, the Chennai Super Kings have reported a "seamless transition" of leadership after their old warhorse Mahendra Singh Dhoni handed over the captaincy to Ruturaj Gaikwad on the eve of the IPL's 17th edition.After being traded from Gujarat back to Mumbai for $1.8 million, his immediate elevation as captain went down badly with the legions of Rohit fans.
Pandya began with a loss at Ahmedabad, home of Gujarat Titans, who won the title in their inaugural season in 2022 under the Indian all-rounder's dynamic leadership.The 30-year-old had another forgettable evening on Monday against Rajasthan Royals, even being jeered at the toss by home fans, prompting presenter Sanjay Manjrekar to call on them to "behave".
The tattooed star with his love for watches is still searching for a first win in charge at Mumbai, who are rooted to the foot of the 10-team table. "Or Joe Root and Jos Buttler fans fight? It's crazy. Do you see Steven Smith fans fighting with Pat Cummins fans in Australia?"
