Rohit Sharma is at the top of his cricketing career, with fans praising him for his aggressive batting and on-field captaincy selections. So, when the Mumbai Indians opted to replace him with Hardik Pandya, the harsh criticism was unsurprising. However, ahead of the IPL super auctions at the end of the year, several seasoned cricketers are debating the potential of Rohit Sharma going to another franchise.
Ambati Rayudu, a veteran Chennai Super Kings (CSK) hitter, has previously stated that the CSK would be pleased to have a player like Rohit Sharma, and on Wednesday, he stated that any IPL team would love to have Rohit Sharma as their captain.
“It’s Rohit Sharma’s call where he wants to go. All the IPL teams would love to have him as the captain. He’ll go to a franchise that maybe treats him better than what has happened here,” Ambati Rayudu told Star Sports amid a lot of buzzes around Rohit moving to some other franchise in the next IPL.
Amid all of the talk about Rohit Sharma’s future IPL prospects, Lucknow Super Giants coach Justin Langer expressed his interest in bringing the Indian star to their club. Justin Langer was asked to select a player from any other IPL squad.
“One guy I want? Hmmm… if I could have anyone…. who do you think?” Langer asked the person taking his interview. The interviewer responded with another question: “We have most of our bases covered. But do you think you can get Rohit Sharma?.”
Justin Langer couldn’t stop smiling at Rohit Sharma’s reference and said “Rohit Sharma? Hahaha. We’re going to get him from Mumbai… Well, you better be the negotiator.
