“Is the house of the house?” Rohit Sharma’s late India star Shardul Thakur taunt for stumps

Mumbai is on a role in the ongoing edition of the Indian Indian Premier League (IPL). Five-time Champions, who lost four of their first five matches, found their Mojo back at the right time and won four back-to-back games. With 10 points after nine matches, MI is set to face Lucknow Super Giants in an important IPL 2025 stability at Wankhed Stadium on Sunday. This season in his last encounter, LSG won by 12 runs.

Next to the upcoming conflict against LSG, MI Star opener Rohit Sharma gave his fans a blessing moment. During net practice, Rohit was seen sitting with LSG mentor Zaheer Khan. At that moment, LSG Pacer Shardul Thakur entered the scene and taunted Rohit to come late to practice.

In a video posted by Mumbai Indians on X (East Twitter), Rohit was heard saying, “Are you a hero, Abhi Aa Raha, what is the team of the house(Hey, hero, you are coming now? Is this your home team?) “

The MI will come into the clash after defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad in his last game at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Wednesday.

Following a down-on-Burbar 143 for 8, Henrik Klassen’s efforts (71 runs in 44 balls) and Abhinav Manohar (43 runs in 37 balls), built on the attempts of his 99-run stand, Rohit was in his area as he scored 70 runs to bring a swift end to the divers of the house team in 15.4 overs.

Earlier, Passer Deepak Char and Trent Bault led an impressive bowling show, as Mumbai Indians banned Sunrisers Hyderabad.

Chahar (2/12) and Bault (4/26) rubbed SRH in their early mantras as Henrik Klassen pulled the things with half a ton of his best before Pat Cummins to 4 to 4 in the fifth over.

Like MI, Rohit has also found his rhythm back with the bat. Apart from his 70-run knock against SRH, he scored 76 runs against the first Arch-Pratikas Chennai Super Kings.
