Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma did not take part in the match against Kings XI Punjab, and decided to take rest as a precaution. Although a record has not been registered in this match, he has not played any match in the IPL after 11 years. The last time he could not play in the match against Chennai Super Kings on 27 May 2008.
Rohit Sharma has played consistently in the IPL. He played 32 matches for Deccan Chargers and 133 for Mumbai Indians. Although Rohit missed a record for playing the most matches consistently for a franchisee. Suresh Raina, who has consistently played 134 matches for Chennai Super Kings, is the record for most matches played for a franchise. Rohit missed out on this record by just two matches.
Rohit Sharma felt pain in his right leg during the practice against Kings XI Punjab one day prior to the match, after which he went with the physio to the dressing room. Since then Rohit's fitness has started to worsen everyone. However, Kieron Pollard, who captained Mumbai against Punjab, made it clear that Rohit is completely fit and he has decided to rest in this match only as a precaution.
Let us tell you that Mumbai Indians will play Rajasthan Royals on April 13, Royal Challengers Bangalore on April 15 and Delhi Capitals on April 18. Because of this, Rohit's decision is absolutely correct considering the schedule. Especially considering this, India has to take part in the World Cup from next month and before that a player like Rohit Sharma could have been a big blow to India.
