Leaders Online Desk: The 17th season of IPL will start from March 22. This time all eyes will be on two legendary cricketers of India. The first name is that of Rohit Sharma, who will be playing for Mumbai Indians as a batsman this time. The other name is that of MS Dhoni, whose season may be the last. Meanwhile, former CSK batsman Ambati Rayudu has made a big statement about Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni. After which there has been excitement among the fans.
Rayudu said that he would like to see Rohit Sharma playing for CSK in 2025. Not only this, he wants the hitman to lead CSK after MS Dhoni's retirement,' he has expressed in an interview.
Hardik Pandya will be seen leading Mumbai Indians in place of Rohit Sharma before this year's IPL. He has joined the Mumbai team after being traded from Gujarat Titans (GT). After that, Pandya was directly made the captain. On this, Rayudu said, 'Pandya was released by Mumbai Indians before IPL 2022. He then became the captain of a new team, Gujarat Titans (GT). Under his leadership, GT became champions in the first season, while the team finished as runners-up for the second season in a row. However, it will not be easy for Hardik Pandya to lead MI.'
“I think MI has rushed to change the leadership. Rather than making Pandya the captain, it was necessary for Rohit to retain the leadership this season. It would have been better if Pandya had also accepted the captaincy next year, because Rohit is still the captain of Team India,' he advised at this time.
'Rohit can play for next 5 to 6 years. I want to see him play for CSK in future. Rayudu also expressed his opinion that when MS Dhoni retires, he should take over the captaincy of CSK.
