The performance of Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024 was very disappointing. After the defeat against KKR, the Mumbai team is almost out of the IPL 2024 playoffs. KKR defeated Mumbai by 24 runs in the match played on Friday and defeated Mumbai after 12 years at Wankhede.
Before the current IPL season, Mumbai was made the captain by snatching the captaincy from Rohit Sharma, but the team continued to flop under the captaincy of Pandya.
Hardik had to be a constant victim of trolls after becoming the captain of Mumbai. Be it hooting in the stadium or trolling on Twitter, users harassed Pandya a lot. Meanwhile, former Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan criticized Hardik Pandya and said that the questions being raised regarding his captaincy are correct.
Irfan Pathan fiercely criticized Hardik Pandya
Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan shared a video on his Instagram account, in which he said that the story of Mumbai Indians ended here. Look, Mumbai was such a good team on paper, but it was not managed. The questions being raised on Hardik's captaincy were the right questions. When KKR lost five wickets for 57 runs, there was no need to bowl three consecutive overs to Naman Dheer. You should have brought your sixth bowler and from there, a good partnership was formed between Manish and Venkatesh.
Irfan further said that where you could have restricted the team to 150 runs, you allowed them to score 170 runs and this was the main point of the defeat. Cricket is a game where captaincy and management are important and the Mumbai team is not playing united at the moment. Bringing everyone together, respecting the captaincy and it seems that the players of the Mumbai team did not accept their captain.
Along with this, Australia's Michael Clarke had also said just before MI's KKR match that yes, I do not know whether they will reach the playoffs. I think this is wishful thinking for Mumbai in the entire IPL. I think there's a lot more going on than what we see on the outside, and you can't do that.
