The buzz around the rift inside the Mumbai Indians camp is only getting bigger and bigger. There are reports stating there are two groups inside the MI camp and this has been the major reason behind their disappointing campaign in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League. They were also among the first teams to get out of the IPL 2024 playoffs. Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya might have added another chapter to this story.
Rohit leaves as Hardik arrives in the nets
As per a report from Dainik Jagran, Rohit Sharma was sitting with Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma after finishing his batting practice but got up and left after Hardik Pandya came to bat in the nets on the eve of KKR vs MI clash in Eden Garden. The report also stated that there was no sign of Hardik Pandya when Rohit was batting in the nets.
Mumbai Indians later went on to lose the clash against Kolkata Knight Riders by 18 runs. KKR became the first team to qualify for the playoffs with this win and now have even ensured their spot in the Qualifier 1 after rain washed out their clash against Gujarat Titans and they had to share a point with GT.

Rohit to Nayar "Ek ek cheez change ho rha hai!,, Wo unke upar hai,,, Jo bhi hai wo mera ghar hai bhai, wo temple mene banwaya hai" !
Last line - "Bhai mera kya mera to ye last hai".
