IPL 2024: After Mumbai’s Defeat, Irfan Pathan Made Captain Hardik A Villain. Mumbai just lost a nail-biter to Sunrisers Hyderabad, and fingers are being pointed at Hardik Pandya’s leadership and performance. Now, even former Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan’s taken a jab at Hardik for his slow batting.
What’d Pathan Say? ️
Pathan tweeted, “Imagine your whole team blasting sixes at a 200 strike rate, then the captain crawls out with a measly 120. Not gonna work, bro!” Now, Pathan didn’t exactly name names, but everyone knows who he’s talking about.

**Is Hardik’s Batting Hurting Mumbai? **
Mumbai needed 278 runs to win. Openers Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan went ballistic, but then came Hardik, taking 20 balls for just 24 runs before getting out. ♂️
**Should Mumbai Look Elsewhere? **
Here’s the kicker: everyone else in the batting order went HAM! Kishan smashed 34 runs in 13 balls, Rohit scored 26 in 12, Naman Dheer blasted 30 in 14, Tilak Varma rocked a 64 in 34, and Tim David even added 42 in 22 at the end.
**So, the question is: Is Hardik Pandya the right captain and batsman for Mumbai Indians? **
