“He won’t be at Mumbai Indians next season” – Wasim Akram on Rohit Sharma’s IPL future
Mumbai Indians encountered the wrath of ardent fans after the unceremonious removal of Rohit Sharma as their skipper. Rohit Sharma remains one of the leagues most accomplished captains having led Mumbai to secure five IPL titles.
Wasim Akram, Pakistan’s bowling icon, has prophesied that Sharma’s long-standing affiliation with MI will end after the current season. He thought that the swashbuckling hitter would be an excellent fit for the Kolkata Knight Riders.
Wasim Akram stated:
“I have a feeling, he won’t be at Mumbai Indians next season. I would love to see him at KKR. Imagine him open there, Gauti as a mentor, Iyer as a captain. They will have a very strong batting, at that wicket (Eden Gardens). He bats very well on any wicket, he is that great a player. But it will be good to see him at KKR.”

Rohit Sharma is gearing up to dazzle the crowds on Saturday May 11 in the upcoming faceoff between MI and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the iconic Eden Gardens. Remarkably Mumbai has become the pioneer team to officially bow out of contention for the IPL 2024 playoffs.
