Here is the Video of Rohit Sharma:

Mumbai Indians until last year had only won the IPL in odd years (2013, 2015, 2017, 2019), but the Rohit Sharma-led unit was really good in the last year’s edition as they successfully defended their title. Thus, it will be exciting to see how the side goes about in the upcoming edition of the tournament.
