The former captain played a crucial role in guiding the side to their iconic five titles.</p>
<p>After snubbing Rohit from the captaincy role, Pandya faced huge criticism from the franchise fan base across all the stadiums. Earlier, following the captaincy controversy, there were rumours surrounding Rohit Sharma would likely leave the franchise and would go under the hammer ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction. But Mumbai Indians shut all the speculations by retaining their former skipper.</p>
