Hitman of Indian Cricket Rohit Sharma carried a lot of expectations and hopes when he led the Indian side in the recent World Cup. India won ten consecutive matches and entered the finals. Fans expected that Rohit Sharma would stand beside Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Kapil Dev as World Cup-winning captain.

But things did not go well as planned and India lost the finals. Fans' dream to watch Rohit Sharma lifting the trophy was not fulfilled. This would be the last World Cup of Rohit Sharma given his age. Other seniors might also not play in the next World Cup edition.

Amid this Rohit Sharma fans have a new fear with media reports saying that Hitman might not play for Mumbai Indians. Reports say that Hardik Pandya would be traded to MI from the Gujarat Titans side and in return Rohit Sharma might be traded to the Titans.

Rohit Sharma has a big legacy in the Mumbai Indians team and it is hard to imagine him in other jerseys than a blue jersey. Under his captaincy, MI won four titles. This is the record he enjoys with the team leading it. However, reports started doing rounds that Rohit might go to Gujarat Titans and Hardik would go to MI.

But the issue took a big turn with the Cricket news website Cricbuzz saying that Rohit Sharma will not be traded and will remain with the team as the skipper. But Hardik might be traded. Instead of trading Rohit Sharma the Mumbai Indians team would give Rs 15 crore to GT management.

It can be seen as a big relief to Rohit fans that he would not be released. Making the team strong Hardik Pandya who played for seven seasons with the team will come back to the MI fold. Let us wait for the official announcement.
