Rohit Sharma was in no mood to have fun after the Mumbai Indians lost to Gujarat Titans by 6 runs in their opening match of the Indian Premier League 2024. Rohit batted brilliantly and scored 43 off 29 balls, with the help of 7 fours and 1 six. However, his effort didn’t help the five-time champions, as a late collapse proved costly for Mumbai.
Hardik talked to players after the match and even tried to hug the former captain Rohit. But the veteran was in no mood and started scolding him. Sharma looked upset about what unfolded at the Narendra Modi stadium.
The legendary batter kept explaining to Pandya about the mistake committed during their run-chase, and the new skipper had no choice but to listen to his senior.
The video of Rohit’s angry reaction has gone viral on social media. You can watch the video here.
Chasing 169 runs in good conditions for batting due to the dew factor, Ishan Kishan went back without opening the account. It didn’t hurt Mumbai as Rohit and other batters kept the scoreboard ticking. It was Dewald Brevi’s dismissal that changed the game completely.
The champion team couldn’t score the required runs after the young South African batter departed and lost the contest. Mohit Sharma bowled the most crucial spell for Gujarat, as his slower ones and changing pace proved challenging to negotiate. He took two wickets and conceded just 32 runs.
