Aakash Chopra’s reaction to Mumbai Indians’ opening game against the Gujarat Titans is, “Want Hardik Pandya to get booed.”
Previous India cricketer and master Aakash Chopra needs the swarm to boo Hardik Pandya when he takes his group Mumbai Indians to the Narendra Modi Stadium for a match against the Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2024. MI begin their campaign absent from domestic at GT on 24 Walk, and this will be the primary time Pandya will be returning to his previous establishment, where he drove to the IPL title in 2022 and to the ultimate in 2023.
In a shocking move, Pandya rejoined Mumbai Fair ahead of the IPL 2024 sell-off and was too afterwards made the captain supplanting Rohit Sharma, who has won five titles as a captain at MI. Akash Chopra, while talking about the IPL 2024 plan, which was released on Thursday, said that the Ahmedabad swarm scoffing at Pandya on his return will be great for the association because it will appear that the competition has ‘matured’.
“I need Hardik Pandya to induce booing in Ahmedabad. I’ll tell you why. To begin with the IPL season is Mumbai vs. Kolkata. We were playing at the Wankhede Stadium. Ajit Agarkar was in our group, and we had to take him off the boundary since he was Mumbai’s boy, playing against Mumbai in Mumbai and getting booed by the Wankhede swarm. So we put him back inside the circle since it was not nice,” Chopra said on JioCinema.

“Now Hardik Pandya goes to Mumbai after winning the championship once, driving the group to the ultimate another time. And not fair that, but choosing to take off the establishment. On the off chance that there isn’t any acid reflux within the open of Ahmedabad, on the off chance that they don’t feel harmed, where is the fun? I am anticipating it. No, I am trusting—don’t tell anybody—that Hardik goes for the hurl and individuals go ‘Boo’. That’s where the alliance matures.” MI is the joint-most effective side in the IPL, alongside the Chennai Super Rulers, with five wickets each. Mumbai, in any case, won the final in 2020 and has not been able to be reliable over the final three seasons. Rohit’s destitute shape with the bat in the IPL and MI’s trophy-dry season led to the establishment changing its captain. Presently, all eyes will be on Pandya and how he captains the group upon his return to the side, which makes him the genius that he is.
