'Rohit Sharma is superb, but Hardik Pandya….': Sidhu's major prediction on India's captaincy ahead of MI vs RCB match
Hardik Pandya is the future. Rohit is now around 36-37. He has a couple more years left.
He is a superb captain and a wonderful player. If you ask me, he is poetry in motion. Whenever I see him, it looks like time stops.
But, you have to look forward and prepare the ground for someone to take over," Navjot Singh Sidhu said while speaking with India Today. While calling Hardik Pandya, a natural choice to succeed Rohit Sharma as the captain of Team India, Navjot Singh Sidhu mentioned his experience in leading the Indian team for almost a year and that's why he became the vice-captain. "I am not advocating Hardik Pandya for Test match captaincy.
But, he is your vice-captain. He has captained India in T20Is for close to a year when Rohit was not there. Hardik is your natural choice.
That's why BCCI has named him the team's vice-captain. There's a lot of planning and, a lot of consideration that goes on before BCCI takes a call. MI vs RCB 2024 IPL clash is going to be one of the biggest matches in IPL 2024 as Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai Indians go against Faf du Plessis-led Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB).
Team India's two former skippers- Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will play as openers in today's game and it is surely going to be an interesting contest. Virat Kohli, who has been the top scorer in the IPL 2024 and is donning the prestigious Orange Cap. He is looking at another big milestone against Mumbai Indians as the star batter is just four sixes away from his 250 IPL maximums.
