Rohit should not come under the pressure of captaincy and play his game freely. This team has the potential to bounce back. It can still qualify for the playoffs."Former India cricketer Irfan Pathan reckoned Mumbai Indians are struggling in IPL 2023 because their bowlers are unable to maintain pressure on new batters. Rajasthan Royals went on to score 212/7 in 20 overs.Speaking on Star Sports' Cricket Live, Irfan Pathan said, "The problem with MI bowlers is that they are allowing the new batters to settle. They have even allowed the uncapped batters to play aggressively. Almost every bowler, except Piyush Chawla, didn't bowl consistently in the right areas."Former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh also agreed with Virender Sehwag's opinion and said the legacy of MI is such that every player wishes to be a part of this franchise and it will be Rohit's responsibility to revive it in IPL 2023.Speaking on Star Sports, Cricket Live, Harbhajan said, "MI has had a different legacy. Every cricketer aspires to be a part of this franchise. Although the situation has changed a bit this year, Rohit has the responsibility to revive this legacy. They have many young and talented players. Now, it is his job to groom these players."Chasing a massive 213-run target successfully MI under the leadership of Rohit Sharma have registered their fourth win of the season in eight matches and they are now placed in the seventh spot in the points table.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
