Rohit Sharma's Hilarious Reaction to Chinnaswamy Spectator's 'RCB mein ajao' Response During IPL Chat with IND Captain

Rohit had a successful stint as the captain of the Mumbai team from 2013 to 2023, leading the franchise to five IPL titles and establishing them as the most successful team in the league. However, as Mumbai plans for the future and with Rohit's recent slump in batting form, they made the surprising decision to appoint Hardik Pandya as the captain for the 2024 season.

Throughout the 2024 IPL season, there were rumours of tension in the dressing room, with the team reportedly divided in two halves, one favouring the incumbent skipper, while others in Rohit's corner. This subsequently sparked speculations that Rohit might part ways with Mumbai at the end of the season.

Rohit or Mumbai are yet to make an official announcement on the decision, with a PTI report, earlier this week, indicating that the franchise is certain to retain the T20 World Cup-winning captain.

Amid the rumours of Mumbai and potential moves Rohit could make, a spectator at the Chinnaswamy Stadium during the opening Test against New Zealand asked the India captain which team he would want to play in the IPL next season. Rohit, who was then making his way past the sight screen to the Indian dressing room, said looked up towards the fan in the stands and asked back, "Where do you want?" The fan then replied saying: "RCB mein ajao (Come to RCB)," leaving Rohit in splits.

Lucknow Super Giants and Punjab Kings were rumoured to be the frontrunners to grab Rohit, if he makes himself available for the auction. But speculations about RCB began after former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif, speaking on Star Sports last month, urged the Bengaluru franchise to acquire the 37-year-old in the auction and announce him the skipper.

"RCB should take that chance, 100 per cent, by hook or by crook, they must convince him to take up captaincy. Rohit knows very well how to form an XI so RCB will have the advantage if he is picked and probably their trophy drought could also end," he said.
