Ravi Shastri says, “An emotional homecoming is coming for Hardik Pandya, but beating the Mumbai Indians won’t be easy”

Hardik Pandya used to play for the Mumbai Indians from 2015 to 2021, and during this time period, he helped the team win four titles.

Former head coach of the Indian Cricket Team Ravi Shastri said that it will be an emotional homecoming for the captain of the Gujarat Titans, Hardik Pandya, who achieved fame playing at Wankhede Stadium, but defeating the Mumbai Indians on their home ground has always been tough for the visiting teams. Ravi Shastri said that “Hardik’s homecoming will be emotional. He will play a crucial match against the team at the ground where he rose to stardom. Hardik would like to prove a lot by leading his team to victory.
He further said that “this match will be really interesting as it will not be easy for GT to beat MI at their home, and then MI would like to equalise the defeat in Ahmedabad and take a strong step towards the playoffs.”
Former legendary spinner of Team India Harbhajan Singh said, “MI will have to bring their A-game against GT because the latter’s bowling lineup is very strong. GT has Rashid, Shami, and other quality bowlers. Mumbai’s bowling attack, on the other hand, is weaker, and they are leaking 200-plus runs. Yes, MI has chased down three consecutive 200-plus totals, but the law of averages might catch up. Also, the toss is going to be very crucial in that game; if MI loses the toss, it will be tough.”
