Rohit was declared captain of India's yet-to-be-named T20 World Cup squad in February this year by BCCI secretary Jay Shah at an event in Ahmedabad, a good two months after he was replaced by Pandya as MI skipper.

Also seen at the game were Ritika Sajdeh, who came to cheer husband Rohit Sharma, Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant.

Hardik Pandya continued to be targetted by irate Mumbai Indians fans.

Did Riyan Parag steal the show?

A clinical Rajasthan Royals romped home for a third win on the trot in IPL 2024 with a six-wicket hammering of Mumbai Indians.

Pandya has taken over MI captaincy from Rohit Sharma this season upon his return from Gujarat Titans and the whole saga of change of leadership has not gone down well with the fans.

Mumbai Indians have once again made a familiar disappointing start to their IPL campaign as they lost their first two matches.

'I am still really fresh in my T20 career and still trying to work out where I am best suited. But I feel I have got the skill sets to bat anywhere.'

'Fan wars should never go this ugly a route. One should remember which country these players represent -- our country. So, then what warrants a cricketer getting booed?'

Kirsten said Gill, who took over as GT skipper after Hardik Pandya moved to MI, has adjusted to his role well.

Australian star batter Steve Smith has advised Hardik Pandya to simply "block out" the constant jeers and boos the new Mumbai Indians skipper is receiving from spectators at the IPL so far, as they are "all irrelevant".

What Tendulkar and Pandya told the players...

It's just two games into the tournament but Hardik Pandya already seems to have loads to worry about in his second stint with Mumbai Indians, the leadership part not quite falling in place thus far.

World's number one T20 batter Suryakumar Yadav will skip a few more IPL matches as he continues to recover from a sports hernia surgery with the National Cricket Academy (NCA) keeping a watch on his progress.

Here is a look at all the records broken in the game:

'For him (Jasprit Bumrah) and Mumbai to be starved of that opportunity to try and stem the flow of this onslaught is crazy. It doesn't seem right.'

Abhishek or Naman? Whose catch impressed you?

MI eventually fell short by 31 runs but Rohit's fans could not be contained in a stadium that was drenched in an orange hue...

Cummins or Bumrah? Which bowler would you rate higher on a day when more than 500 runs were scored?

'When Tilak Varma, Hardik bhai and even Tim David were batting, we were still a bit, I won't say worried but concerned.'

On Wednesday, SRH opener Travis Head (62 off 24) and number three Abhishek Sharma (63 off 23) came up with a sensational display of power-hitting that saw the latter snatching the franchise record for the fastest fifty from the Australian within minutes.

'...the domestic season gives us a lot of confidence. The message for the batters is simple -- go out and express yourself. The plan was to attack, I enjoyed batting with Head, he is one of my favourite batters, and I admire him. He told me to go for it if it was in my zone.'

Abhishek, Head or Klassen? Whose batting caught your fancy last night?

Ahead of the match against SunRisers Hyderabad, Rohit was felicitated with a special jersey presented by former MI captain and current mentor Sachin Tendulkar.

Rani Rampal, Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag also posted their wishes and pictures on X.

Jay Shah was seen having a light-hearted chat with Kishan and national captain Rohit Sharma.

Should Hardik have opened the bowling instead of Bumrah? Should he have come in higher than No. 7?
