Commentators Sanjay Manjrekar and Sanjay Bangar felt it was unfair that Rohit Sharma is making the headlines for the tactical change, as it was Hardik Pandya who gave the order and Karn Sharma who executed things, so the duo deserves much more applause for the Mumbai Indians’ victory.
He then passed the message to head coach Mahela Jayawardene, who finally asked captain Hardik Pandya to bring Karn into the attack with the new ball, and it did wonders for them.
In the ongoing season, the bowling sides have the luxury to change the ball after 10 overs to deal with the dew in night matches, and Rohit Sharma made sure MI got the benefit of the rule. With the second ball, Karn first removed Naman Dhir and then KL Rahul in the next over in Delhi.
As soon as Mumbai ended Delhi’s winning streak in the ongoing season, fans started singing praise for Rohit and demanding his return as captain.
However, Sanjay Manjrekar and Sanjay Bangar raised a valid point and called for what Hardik deserves as captain.
Spotlight should really be on Karn Sharma and Hardik Pandya: Sanjay Bangar
Meanwhile, Sanjay Manjrekar said during the same discussion after Bangar shared his views, “There are many people who are there to give suggestions, but it all depends on the person in the middle who has to take the decision. He (Hardik) listened to the advice (from Rohit) is the biggest thing. If you give Rohit credit here as well and not Hardik Pandya, it would be the wrong thing. If the suggestion had failed, you would've blamed Hardik.”
The entire credit for this victory should go to Hardik Pandya: Sanjay Manjrekar
Manjrekar added, “It's quite easy to give suggestions from outside. The entire credit for this victory should go to Hardik Pandya. Considering how emotional he has been (over Mumbai's recent results), it was an important win for him.
