IPL 2026, Mumbai Indians: The countdown for IPL 2026 has started. The 19th season of this league is to be played from March 28. All the teams have intensified their preparations for this season. BCCI has also released the schedule of the initial matches. Meanwhile, a shocking news has come out from the camp of 5-time champion Mumbai Indians. It is being claimed on social media that before the start of the season, Mumbai captain Hardik Pandya has warned former captain Rohit Sharma. Now the reaction of Mumbai Indians has come to light on this.
Such a big lie was spread about Rohit-Hardik
Before IPL 2026, a big rumor has gained momentum in the Mumbai Indians camp, in which it is claimed that captain Hardik Pandya has warned former captain Rohit Sharma. A user on social media said in a viral post that Hardik has informed the team management that if Rohit Sharma does not score runs, it will not be tolerated this time. According to the claim, the management is very angry with Rohit’s performance in the last 10-12 years, because he is able to score only 200-300 runs in every season, that too at a strike rate of around 120. But he is one of the highest paid players of the team.
This news quickly spread on social media and became a topic of discussion among cricket fans. Especially because Rohit Sharma’s batting form has been a matter of concern for some time. He has not scored 500 runs in any season in IPL since 2013. Last season also he had scored 418 runs in 15 matches. But Mumbai Indians clearly rejected this entire rumor. The team responded and wrote in just two words from the official social media handle. ‘Anything.’ He also posted a funny GIF of Hardik Pandya, which clearly shows that this claim is completely baseless and false.
Even a little!

Biggest match winners of Mumbai Indians
Both Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya are important parts of the team. Hardik has been holding the captaincy since 2024, while Rohit has been the successful captain of the team for a long time. Under his captaincy, Mumbai has won the IPL title 5 times. In such a situation, the fans are hoping that both the players together will make the team win the trophy again. Mumbai will start its campaign in IPL 2026 on March 29. In the first match it will face the Kolkata team.
