Jokes apart, he has started contributing more and looks happier after meeting Akash Ambani. Good signs for MI.#MIvsCSK | #IPL2024 | #RohitSharma pic.twitter.com/larUGzQGYW
Earlier in the day, Rohit arrived at the Wankhede Stadium in his Range Rover, bearing the number plate 0264, a nod to his record-breaking innings of 264 runs against Sri Lanka at the Eden Gardens, the highest individual score in ODI history. Accompanying him in the vehicle was MI co-owner Akash Ambani, with Rohit behind the wheel and the current India captain seated in the passenger seat.
Despite his slow start in the IPL season, Rohit has begun to find his rhythm as an opener, amassing 156 runs in five matches at a strike rate of 167.74, although he has yet to score a fifty.
As Mumbai Indians prepare to take on Chennai Super Kings in the season’s first ‘El Clasico’ match, Rohit’s leadership and performance will be crucial. Mumbai Indians, led by Hardik Pandya, aim to secure a hat-trick of wins at home while adding to Chennai Super Kings’ woes with a third consecutive away loss. Currently, the Ruturaj Gaikwad-led Chennai Super Kings stand third in the table with three wins from five games, all secured at home, while Mumbai Indians, after a shaky start to the season, are placed seventh with four points from five games.
