Rohit and Hardik were recently seen hanging out with each other and the other Mumbai Indians players during their trip to Jamnagar. It is going to be interesting to see what happens in the next few days. Mumbai lock horns with Delhi on Sunday at the Wankhede and they would be desperate to open their account.
Rohit’s form with the bat has not been up to expectations. He registered a duck in the game against Rajasthan Royals. He would look to get some runs under his belt with the T20 World Cup coming up, it would help his confidence as he is set to lead the side in the marquee event.
