IPL 2022: Rohit Sharma EXPLAINS why MI will have no "added advantage" of playing in Mumbai
Zee News
The league phase of the IPL 2022 will be held in Mumbai and Pune. Mumbai Indians have been playing their home games at the Wankhede Stadium since the start of the tournament in 2008.
Mumbai Indians' skipper Rohit Sharma on Wednesday said they will have no ''added advantage'' of playing their IPL 2022 matches in the city's three grounds as many in the ''relatively new team'' have not played a single game in Mumbai in the last two years.
The IPL 2022 begins at the Wankhede Stadium with a clash between Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders on Saturday.
''I hope you saw the auction, relatively new team, lot of new guys have come into the team, so I don't believe in added advantage because these guys, like lot of the guys 70 (or) 80 percent of the squad has not played in Bombay before,'' Rohit said at a virtual press conference.
