Following Mumbai's third loss, concerns have been expressed regarding Hardik Pandya's leadership. Pandya's appointment as MI captain is being attributed to a variety of factors. In the meantime, Navjot Singh Sidhu stated in response to a query from Dainik Bhaskar in the Star Sports Press Room that Hardik Pandya has been given command of MI and is regarded as India's T-20 captain.
Sidhu went on to say that because Hardik Pandya is the captain of the Indian team but not the franchise, fans are reacting negatively to him. Hardik Pandya was captaining the Indian squad before February. This is the reason MI chose Pandya to be captain. Though Rohit isn't the franchise captain, the BCCI named him the captain of the Indian T-20 team in February.
Rohit had a fantastic season last year.
Without Bumrah and Cootji, Rohit led Mumbai to the playoffs in the previous season, according to Sidhu. Hardik has to meet the team's standards at the same time. For the past two years, Hardik has led Gujarat to multiple finals. Expectations from him have therefore grown. For Hardik, the timing is not ideal.
Hardik made a number of grave mistakes while leading the team.
According to Stuart Broad, during a discussion in the Star Sports press room, Hardik has made some really poor choices while leading the Mumbai Indians. Bumrah isn't being used correctly by them. Bumrah ought to go first. A bowler such as Bumrah should bowl just the opening over.
Starc needs to improve his strength, says Broad
After two games, Mitchell Starc, a player for KKR and the most expensive player in the IPL, had not claimed a single wicket. In the eight overs he has bowled, he has also conceded 100 runs. Regarding this, Broad remarked, "You want to dominate the tournament whenever you are bought at a good price, but in the end, KKR won two out of two." Since they're winning, I believe it to be rather significant.
Broad went on to add, "Mitch, forget the price. Write me your three biggest strengths and then stick to them." If I were KKR's bowling coach,. Remain true to your convictions. The IPL is the world's hardest bowling league.
