Team India captain and Mumbai Indians star Rohit Sharma was clearly unimpressed with the fans as they tried to click a picture of him and his daughter at the Mumbai Airport on March 17, Monday. The right-handed batter was heard saying 'Aye, Aye, Aye' to the fans as he returned from the vacation at Maldives.
The 37-year-old did come to India, a day after captaining the Men in Blue to Champions Trophy 2025 victory in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). However, the star cricketer flew to Maldives for a short vacation with his wife Ritika and daughter Samaira. Nevertheless, Rohit was clearly unhappy as the cameras tried to capture him and his daughter at the airport.

Mumbai Indians had a forgettable IPL 2024
Meanwhile, the five-time champions had a forgettable IPL season last year as they finished at the bottom of the table with four wins in 14 games. Although all-rounder Hardik Pandya has been retained as captain, the franchise has replaced Mark Boucher with Mahela Jayawardene as coach.
Rohit, nevertheless, had a decent season with the bat in 2024, aggregating 417 runs and will be keen to build on it this year.
Squad: Hardik Pandya (c), Jasprit Bumrah, Rohit Sharma, Tilak Verma, Trent Boult, Naman Dhir, Robin Minz, Karn Sharma, Ryan Rickelton, Deepak Chahar, Will Jacks, Ashwani Kumar, Mitchell Santner, Reece Topley, Shrijith Krishnan, Raj Angad Bawa, Venkat Satyanarayana Raju, Bevon Jacobs, Arjun Tendulkar, Vignesh Puthhur, Suryakumar Yadav.
They also had a couple of injury replacements, roping in Corbin Bosch for Lizaad Williams and Mujeeb Ur Rahman for Allah Ghazanfar. Mumbai will open their campaign against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on March 23 at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium.
