Hardik Pandya BOOED by Hyderabad Crowd Amid MI Captaincy Saga Featuring Rohit Sharma | WATCH VIDEO
Hyderabad: There was high tension ahead of the match at Hyderabad between Sunrisers and the Mumbai Indians on Wednesday. The tension was because of Hardik Pandya and the trolling he has been facing lately after he was made the captain of the MI side. Hardik first got booed during MI’s first game in Ahmedabad and then again, ahead of their clash against SRH – he got booed in Hyderabad. It happened after he won the toss and his name was announced for him to step forward. Hardik kept his cool throughout at the toss and that is commendable.
Here is the clip that is now going viral:
This is not even Wankhede. Hardik Pandya got booed again in Hyderabad.

It is unbelievable the hate Hardik is receiving for no fault of his. If things are so bad in Ahmedabad and in Hyderabad – imagine what will be the scenes when he leads the MI unit at the Wankhede.
“Looks like a good track, we were solid in the last game. Didn’t plan properly, that cost us the game. 13 games to go, we need to keep doing the right things. We are positive and looking forward to the challenge. Just trying to spend time with all the players. Getting to know them better. One change, Luke misses out, Maphaka comes in,” Hardik said at the toss.
