IPL 2024 witnessed mixed reactions in the Mumbai Indians camp regarding the captaincy change. For those who don’t know, the captaincy was shifted from Rohit Sharma to Hardik Pandya. Fans’ reactions became brutal after the team ended the season on a dismal note. Amid this, there were rumors about Rohit changing his side for the next season. Recently, Sanjiv Goenka (owner of Lucknow Super Giants) addressed the rumors about Rohit being eyed by him.

There are crazy rumors in the market about some big veterans of Indian cricket who are ready to shift their sides in the upcoming IPL season, and Rohit is at the top of that list. It is being said that many teams are eyeing him, and LSG is one such team, ready to shed a massive amount. However, the owner of LSG has dismissed all such rumors and shot down the reports of keeping aside 50 crores of the budget for Rohit alone.

During an interview with SportsTak, Sanjiv Goenka said, “Do you even know if Rohit Sharma is entering the auction? This is all unnecessary. It all depends on whether Mumbai Indians release Rohit Sharma or not. And even if Rohit comes to auction… if you put 50 percent of your purse on one player, how will you buy another play?”
