The buzz surrounding Hardik Pandya’s appointment as the new skipper of the Mumbai Indians ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 has dominated headlines in recent times.
Pandya’s move to MI after a successful stint with the Gujarat Titans marked a significant shift, ending Rohit Sharma’s ten-year captaincy tenure with the franchise.
Following the announcement, MI coach Mark Boucher provided insight into the decision, which drew criticism, including a response from Rohit’s wife Ritika Sajdeh. Shortly after the incident, reports surfaced suggesting that the two cricketers have unfollowed each other on Instagram, sparking further speculation and discussion online.
Yet, the validity of the rumors remained unverified, prompting social media users to present diverse viewpoints. Some asserted that the duo had never followed each other on Instagram, while others claimed that Hardik ceased following Rohit, rather than the reverse.
