Rohit Sharma could have stopped trolling against Hardik Pandya: Aaron Finch Rohit Sharma & Hardik Pandya (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI) For IPL 2024, Mumbai Indians had removed their great captain Rohit Sharma and made Hardik Pandya the captain. Hardik was traded to Gujarat Titans during the auction and it was reported that Pandya had put a condition to come to Mumbai. The condition was that he wanted captaincy in place of Rohit Sharma. Mumbai Indians did not take care of Rohit even once and removed him from the captaincy. After Rohit Sharma was removed like this, the fans were furious with Mumbai Indians and Hardik Pandya. Rohit Sharma’s wife Ritika Sajdeh had also expressed her anger about this. The fans were so angry with this fact that they trolled Hardik Pandya a lot in the initial matches of Mumbai Indians. Fans had crossed the limits of trolling. Its effect could be seen on Hardik, he was becoming mentally weak due to trolling. Meanwhile, now former Australian captain Aaron Finch has given a statement regarding the trolling of Hardik. Rohit Sharma could have stopped all these things: Aaron Finch “The only thing I would love to see from Rohit throughout the IPL campaign is to make a public statement in support of Hardik Pandya. There has been a lot of resentment towards Hardik in the hearts of the public. The way he is being ‘booed’ is not the limit. Therefore, I would love for Rohit himself to come forward and take a stand for Hardik in front of the public. He should support Hardik publicly in front of everyone.” Aaron Finch told what statement Rohit should give- “I think he should say, making Hardik the captain is part of Mumbai Indians’ plan and Hardik has my full support. Just imagine how much faster that could fix things.” he adds- “When Hardik was named in the World Cup squad, he got support. But he was ‘booed’ a lot in 8 matches. Rohit could have done this earlier and stopped his trolling.”

(Image Source: Getty Images) Former New Zealand cricketer Ross Taylor has made a shocking claim that fast bowler Neil WagnerNeil Wagner) was forced to retire from international cricket. Ross Taylor has also expressed fear of a bad atmosphere in the New Zealand cricket team. Let us tell you, 37-year-old Neil Wagner said goodbye to international cricket last week when he was told that he would not be selected in the playing eleven in the ongoing two-match Test series against Australia. Wagner announced his retirement in an emotional press conference before the first Test. However, Wagner entered the field as a substitute fielder during the first Test. Neil Wagner’s presence would have made a big difference: Ross Taylor Meanwhile, Aaron Finch said on ESPN’s Around the Wicket podcast: “I couldn’t believe Neil Wagner was not in the playing XI. Because he would have at least scared Josh Hazlewood. He might have even stopped Cameron Green from scoring this week. “It was a really interesting call.” On which Ross Taylor agreed with Aaron Finch and said that Wagner’s presence would have made a big difference, as Cameron Green and Josh Hazlewood snatched the match from New Zealand by adding 116 runs for the last wicket. Ross Taylor said on ESPN’s Around the Wicket podcast: “His experience would have been very useful and you heard Pat Cummins talking about the plans they had prepared for him. Experience matters a lot, but no, I agree with Finchi. “He made himself available.” I don’t think if Wagner had been there, he would have got a 100-run partnership. I think it’s all starting to make sense a little bit now. There is no sugarcoating it. I think he has taken retirement by force or compulsion. If you listen to Wagner’s press conference, he was considering retiring, but it was after this last Test match. So, He made Himself available. And to see him not being selected… I think you need to plan for the future, but in this situation against Australia I can’t think of anyone other than Neil. I am sure the Australian batsmen are sleeping peacefully knowing that he is not in the team.”

This thinking is very wrong and experience has value in every format of the game. I am being criticized for my age and I feel bad about it. Even today, if you bring a lot of young players in front of me, I am sure they will not come close to me in terms of fitness. How do you benchmark fitness, be it age or performance? I believe that age should be considered a mere number and focus should be on fitness and performance, otherwise players like Jimmy Anderson would have been rare. I don’t play to prove anything to anyone and I am grateful to the people who have chosen me, Tamim Iqbal and the owner of Barisal. I want to repay the faith they have put in me with my performance.”
