Despite a string of defeats in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 campaign, Mumbai Indians players found solace in the unwavering support of their fans in Jaipur. As their team bus navigated through traffic, fans gathered around, chanting “Rohit Sharma” and “Hamara captain kaisa ho.”
Rohit Sharma, the beloved captain of Mumbai Indians, has consistently drawn massive crowds wherever he plays. In Jaipur, despite the team’s struggles, fans turned out in droves to show their appreciation. The chants and cheers echoed through the streets, bringing smiles to the faces of the players.
Earlier, Mumbai Indians shared a heartwarming video on social media, showcasing a fan named Sunny who helped clear traffic for the team bus. Sunny, wearing a shirt with his name emblazoned on the back, played a crucial role in ensuring the team’s timely arrival at the stadium.
Despite the team’s disappointing performance in the match against Rajasthan Royals, which resulted in a 9-wicket defeat, captain Hardik Pandya acknowledged the need for introspection. “We have to admit our flaws and rectify them,” he said. “Progression is very important. We will have to accept our flaws and work on those.”
Pandya also highlighted the team’s subpar fielding performance. “I don’t think it was our best day in the field as well,” he admitted. “Overall, we did not put the right foot on the park and eventually, they outplayed us.”
Despite the setbacks, Mumbai Indians remain determined to turn their fortunes around. The team’s unwavering fan base provides a constant source of motivation, reminding them of the importance of perseverance and resilience.
