Since Friday, one news that has been grabbing the headlines in Indian cricket is Hardik Pandya replacing Rohit Sharma as the Mumbai Indians skipper. For 11 seasons, Mumbai Indians were led by Rohit Sharma, during which time the side rose to be one of the strongest ever teams in the IPL. The announcement from Mumbai Indians came after Hardik Pandya made a return to the franchise last month, following a high-profile trade from Gujarat Titans, whom he led in the past two seasons. Ritika Sajdeh, Rohit Sharma's wife, has now given her first reaction after the change of captaincy. It came on a social media post from Chennai Super Kings.
"2013 - 2023 : A decade of spirited challenge! Much respect, Rohit!" Chennai Super Kings posted on Instagram as a tribute to skipper Rohit Sharma. To which, Ritika Sajdeh reacted with a yellow-coloured heart sign. Yellow is a colour associated with Chennai Super Kings, with their jersey colour also of the same hue.
After announcing the news of the captaincy change, MI put a heartfelt post on social media for Rohit.
"Ro, In 2013 you took over as captain of MI. You asked us to Believe. In victories & defeats, you asked us to Smile. 10 years & 6 trophies later, here we are. Our forever captain your legacy will be etched in Blue & Gold. Thank you, Captain RO," wrote MI on X, formerly Twitter.
