Hardik Pandya hasn’t had the support of the fans in the 2024 edition of the IPL and with all the noise around the Mumbai Indians and the whole captaincy switch, the five-time champions’ performance and the skipper’s own form hasn’t helped the cause either. Including the defeat against the Rajasthan Royals (RR) on Monday, Mumbai Indians have lost five matches now and apart from all the other factors, Pandya’s comments after the defeats have only heightened the animosity.
Pandya’s comments of everything being positive, bowlers doing good despite the evident loss of form for the players hasn’t gone down well with many as several former cricketers have suggested that all the noise is affecting Hardik but isn’t showing and hasn’t been that honest as well in the post-match interviews.
