Hardik Pandya & R Ashwin (Photo Source: Hardik Pandya had a very bad start as a player and captain in IPL 2024. Fans are continuously booing Hardik, while he is also being trolled a lot on social media. Let us tell you that before the 17th season, MI had appointed Hardik Pandya as the captain in place of Rohit Sharma. All the fans were very angry with the decision to make Hardik the captain. Hardik had captained Gujarat Titans (GT) in the last two seasons and performed well as captain there. But since getting the captaincy of MI, he has been continuously the target of fans. Meanwhile, India’s veteran spinner R Ashwin has now come out in support of Hardik. He has scolded the fans for misbehaving with Hardik. Ashwin gave class to fans who misbehaved with Hardik Pandya Ashwin said on his YouTube channel, “Have you seen this happening in any other country? Have you seen the fans of Joe Root and Jack Crawley fighting? Or have you seen the fans of Joe Root and Jos Buttler fighting? this is madness. Have you seen the fans of Steve Smith and Pat Cummins fighting in Australia? I have said it many times. This is cricket. This is a cinema culture. I know there are things like marketing, positioning and branding. I don’t deny it. I don’t believe in all this from my side but it is not wrong to be involved in it either.” The spinner further said, “Fans war should never go down this useless path. We must remember which country these players represent – our country. Then what is the justification for targeting a cricketer? I don’t think why should a team issue an explanation if you don’t like a player and take aim at a player? We behave as if this has never happened before. Sourav Ganguly played under Sachin Tendulkar and later the opposite happened. Both of them have played under the captaincy of Rahul Dravid. All three have played under the captaincy of Anil Kumble and all of them have played under the leadership of Dhoni. When they played under Dhoni, all three were legends. Dhoni has also played under the leadership of Virat.”

‘A dwarf is still a dwarf even if…’ – Former veteran cricketer created a sensation with his controversial statement regarding Rohit and Hardik.
Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 has started, Hardik Pandya has also captained Mumbai Indians in a match, but still the fans are not ready to accept that he is the captain of MI this season. In fact, ever since Hardik Pandya took over the captaincy of Mumbai Indians, there has been an earthquake among the fans. He is unhappy with the fact that Hardik is captaining Mumbai. Pandya, who played for MI from 2015 to 2021, was transferred to GT in an all-cash deal and was given the captaincy role. Under his captaincy, Gujarat became IPL champions in 2022. Ahead of IPL 2024, Hardik was traded back to MI via all-cash and was appointed captain, replacing Rohit Sharma. Let us tell you that Rohit had given five IPL titles to MI. Navjot Singh Sidhu gave a big statement regarding Rohit Sharma Former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu has given his opinion regarding Hardik and Rohit. Sidhu expressed his opinion while speaking on Star Sports and said, “I have played in an Indian team where five captains played together, Kapil Dev, Dilip Vengsarkar, Sunil Gavaskar, Krishnamachari Srikkanth and Ravi Shastri… pick up a brick. And you’ll find a captain both above and below that. There was no problem because he was playing for his country… the motivation was to play for his country. Therefore, playing under Hardik’s captaincy does not make Rohit any younger.” The former Indian opener further said, “I guarantee that this does not make Rohit Sharma small, he is a big player. This is a franchise that has brought in a new guy who is better and everyone has accepted him, but Rohit is a great player.” Sidhu said in his poetic style that ‘A dwarf is still a dwarf even if he stands on the top of a mountain, a god is still a god even if he stands in the depth of a well.’ Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians’ new batting coach Kieron Pollard defended Pandya’s decision to open the bowling and bat at number seven in his opening match. “You have to plan and decide what you want to do as a team,” he said. Hardik has also bowled with the new ball for Gujarat in the last few years.
“Blame Hardik Pandya…” Kieron Pollard gave a big statement on Mumbai losing the match.
Kieron Pollard said this on Hardik Pandya’s decision to bat at number seven. Hardik Pandya and Kieron Pollard (Image Credit- Twitter The losing streak of Mumbai Indians in the opening match of IPL continued for the 12th consecutive year. In this match held on Sunday, Mumbai lost to its new captain Hardik Pandya’s former team Gujarat Titans. Hardik batted at number seven in this match and his decision surprised many people. However, this decision was not taken only by Hardik but by the entire team management, said Mumbai batting coach Kieron Pollard. In this match, Mumbai team was in a good position while chasing the challenge of 169 runs given by Gujarat. They needed 43 runs from 30 balls with seven batsmen left. However, Mumbai could score only seven runs in the next two overs and lost the wicket of Dewald Brevis (46) who was frozen to the ground. After this, instead of batting at number six, Hardik sent Tim David. Former cricketer Irfan Pathan had also raised questions on this decision of Hardik. Actually, Tim David could score only 11 runs in 10 balls. Then Hardik, who came to bat at number seven, hit a six and a four respectively on the first two balls of the last over. However, Mumbai’s hopes of victory ended when Umesh Yadav was dismissed on the third ball of the over and ultimately Mumbai lost by six runs. Kieron Pollard supported Hardik Pandya’s decision to bat at number seven. They said, “It would be wrong to say that the decision to bat at number seven was Hardik alone. As a team we plan. We consider which batsman can perform best in which conditions of the match. In this match our opening batsmen batted for a long time. Apart from this, we had two batsmen who had the ability to hit in the last over. David played the role of a match-winner for us last season.” “When Hardik was in Mumbai, he has been winning us matches for years. But sometimes they may also fail. Only Hardik should not be blamed. This was the decision of all of us and we support Hardik.” Pollard came out in support of his captain, so it is not right to blame Hardik alone for any decision.
“Tailenders come at number 7” – Shami took a dig at Hardik Pandya’s batting order.
During a conversation on Cricbuzz, Mohammed Shami said, “There is a lot of talk about left-right combination. I don’t understand such things. In the last match also we talked about how mature Pat Cummins is. You need to stay one step ahead. You should think, ‘I am. Captain, I must take this responsibility. As far as Hardik is concerned, you gujarat titans I have batted at No. 3 and No. 4, what is the problem here for MI in batting at No. 4 or 5? Hardik basically becomes a tailender at number 7. When you come to bat at number 7, you come with a lot of pressure. I think if Hardik had come first then the match would not have gone till the last over.” During this time he was asked whether Hardik was following MS Dhoni’s template. Regarding this, the fast bowler said, “Dhoni is Dhoni. You cannot compare with anyone else. Everyone has a different mentality, be it Dhoni or Kohli. You should have confidence in your skills in the match.”

Before the auction, Mumbai Indians had appointed Hardik Pandya as the captain of the team. Along with the fans, many players of Mumbai Indians had also expressed their displeasure over the decision of making Hardik Pandya the captain. Speaking on Star Sports, Lakshmipathy Balaji said, ‘It’s been going on for a while, definitely it’s not something you see, there are a lot of friendships, players have gone to different franchises, yes it’s a different matter, but being in the professional field You have to accept it, one side is emotional and one side is huge, when you replace a personality like Rohit Sharma. Lakshmipathy Balaji says that Hardik Pandya will have to win his people, and earn their trust. ,Of course it will take some time, it will get better. And you have to win your people, so for Hardik to win over the entire dressing room it is very important as a player and a human being, the trust needs to be earned, it will take some time. Hardik has a young team and the emotions will be different when they start winning. If they start losing, problems will arise, so things will gradually come to light.

Jasprit Bumrah, IPL 2024 (Photo Source: Mumbai Indians won the toss and decided to bowl first. As soon as the match against Gujarat started, all the veteran cricketers and commentators including the fans were surprised. Despite having an excellent fast bowler like Bumrah in the team, Hardik Pandya decided to bowl himself instead of handing him the new ball. But this decision of Pandya failed and Gujarat washed them in the very first over. He gave 11 runs in the first over. Former England player Kevin Pietersen also questioned why Hardik bowled the first over himself even when Jasprit Bumrah was in the team. The limit was reached when, even after this, Hardik bowled the third over himself and gave 9 runs. But when Bumrah was given the first over, he bowled Saha and gave Mumbai the first wicket. After the match, Irfan Pathan also clearly said that Hardik Pandya made a mistake by bowling the first over.
