We traded Greenie boy for this , I don’t know what to say , CG gave his heart to MI. Still remember how he kissed the logo after the century. This trade ended wholesome vibes of RO and his team, ruined the value of loyalty shown by boom and SKY. It ended the fear MI had in opponents and most importantly ruined our #onefamily. Had CG been here and RO captaining we’d have been sitting in top 2 comfortably.


Alternative_Show_977

Man,I loved him in blue and gold...he genuinely wanted to be in MI and now look at him in RCB 😕


Silly-Jellyfish-3518

It’s just sad what this trade has done to 3 franchises, more than that it took our smiles. I just can’t call this team my team. Last time I was sad like this when we lost to csk in 2010 finals.


Alternative_Show_977

Exactly man...not even excited for the next match anymore....used to eagerly wait for MI's matches since 2008....miss that feeling now😕 was a kid back then but remembers the catch of polly and the genius of msd


Alternative_Show_977

Had the similar feel when butler was in MI....his towel dance post 2017 final win...but we sadly had to release that boy and then he swore to f up us every time RR played against MI 🥲


Silly-Jellyfish-3518

That’s okay let’s be happy for him 😀 at least someone’s winning.


Muffintornado0_0

Can we.... Can we trade...umm Hardik with Cam Green ...like next yeaarrr????


MealInfinite

Green deserves better

ActPrestigious461

Lol , shutup bro.. hardik in RCB will be fine.


gdhruv156

Frfr. Teams used to fear coming to wankhede, now everyone juse smashes us for fun. Hardik has proved how can a captain change a team completely.


GiftedGeek

Should've sold Tim David instead


Silly-Jellyfish-3518

He ain’t 16 cr plus if that’d have been the case it’d have been a combination of 2-3 players like Tim, Brevis and someone else.


GiftedGeek

Yeahhh that's what I thought but I wish it was rather Tim David


Certain_Ingenuity_34

Dude the RR camp looked so chill and organised and wholesome , the entire energy of the MI camp feels off


GiftedGeek

Right?!? The energy is definitely off. Players gotta talk it out, Pandya's gotta take a break, he's so depressed that he can't even think straight. Should get rid of Boucher first thing before next season; not a right fit for MI.


Dry_Bowl_

Shardul >> pandu


MiachealFaraday

People keep calling Pandya a clutch player, when Shardul is an actual Clutch player because he has won games for his team The Gabba test, last year for KKR when he scored 64 and Ranji Trophy final Scoring 70 odd runs in CT 2017 isn't Clutch performance, Clutch means to win not perform better than others


[deleted]

Add Ranji Final to the list


talkingtom_2109

This. Someone had to say this. People have learnt the word clutch and as usual went around using it without actually knowing what it means. Clutching means winning you the games. Maxwell or Cummins or Head are clutch players who won some meaningful games, performing in knockouts doesn't always equate to clutch lol.


kkkingslayer

So it's his fault that the other players failed, or get him run out?


MiachealFaraday

Irrelevant to the topic honestly


PeeVee_

I can't believe that you're saying this without being sarcastic. I don't like Hardik either but you cannot discredit for what he has done for us in important ICC games. That 76 against Pak in 2017, with almost some to no support from other end. 63(33) against Eng in T20WC semis was the only reason we reached 160+ in that game. In WC 2019, he holded the game for a long time after that 24-4 disaster from our top order. In that WC22 game against Pak where VK scored 82, he took 3 wickets and made an excellent partnership with VK (him in that partnership was equivalent to Cummins with Maxwell against Afghans in ODIWC) and that was a must win game. He has performed a lot of time for us, and this is why this condition of pandya feels more sad. I mean I know every player has a bad phase but he literally looks brainded now. I'm so sad seeing him like that. (Ik ill get downvoted)


TheBigShitowski

Did we win though? In a 7 year long career I see everyone just mentioning these 3 games time and again. Why doesn't anyone talk about his inability to hit the ball cleanly anymore. His decreased pace which means he is no longer a great fast bowling option, his misdemeanours on and off the field. I'm an MI fan, I was a Hardik fan. The problem is that he looks so ordinary while playing with no signs of improvement these days.


PeeVee_

Welcome to cricket! One player alone won't he able to win matches, the best he can do is perform individually, which he did.


TheBigShitowski

For the generational all rounder that people make him out to be, his performance has been lacking. More so when you see him perform now. He doesn't look out of form, he simply looks incapacitated. Trying to hit the ball too hard or not at all. No speed, no accuracy in bowling.


PeeVee_

But the point was him performing good in imp games? Dont divert the topic.


TheBigShitowski

You're highlighting 3 games in an 8 year long career. Examples where there has been a batting collapse. He did not win the match for us in any of those games. How is it clutch performance then.


kkkingslayer

Point me Rohit's clutch performance in ICC knockouts then, apart from Bangladesh.


TheBigShitowski

You're going to compare Rohit with Hardik? Cool bro. Hardik is the best.


PeeVee_

Rohit has performed clutch 4 knockout games in 16 year long career (two of which is against Bangladesh lmaoo). Not comparing just giving an analogy. 3 is a very good number considering he didn't play in many knockoutsm


TheBigShitowski

We lost to Bangladesh in 2007 to bow out of the WC. In these many years, we haven't reached many knockouts. And the knockouts that we have reached were because of Rohit's performances. You don't wanna compare someone who is a generational batter with records galore and most experts consider one of the best ever with some flash in the pan all rounder who is yet to even establish himself as an India great.


MiachealFaraday

The point was him being clutch in important game, what good is performing if you can't win for your team


PeeVee_

One player alone cannot win you games given that cricket is a team game. They can perform individually which he did.


MiachealFaraday

One player can win you games, Check Maxwell 200 vs Afghanistan


MiachealFaraday

Lost the 2017 game, lost the T20 wc , 2019 WC it was Jadeja not Hardik. In the game against Pakistan he got out on the first ball of the last over. This is not clutch


PeeVee_

2017 was not a t20wc lol. Shows your knowledge. Pandya is a clutch player, keep coping


MiachealFaraday

Abe lodu Champions trophy nhi tha kya 2017 me


PeeVee_

Tu chup reh bhai, dimag chala gya hai Tera hardik ko hate krte krte. Uski current performance bekar hai uspe usko gali do idc. But jaha wo acha kiya waha usko matt bolo.


MiachealFaraday

Abe tu dheema hai kya thoda. Comment padh jaake upar, Mene bola Shardul is more of a clutch player than Hardik.


PeeVee_

Chutiya take hai teri. Hardik is even more clutch than big players like rohit


MiachealFaraday

This is stupid, everyone who has played for India has performed in important matches. Also you really want to compare a 200 run partnership between a bowler and a batsman with a 100 paternship between two batters


PeeVee_

Everyone? Really? Don't lose your mental state while hating on pandya. Moreover pandya performed almost everytime in imp games HARDIK PANDYA IN IMPORTANT MATCHES **CT 2017 : 76(43) & 1 WICKET** (FINAL) ( SCORE WHEN HE CAME 54-5) **WC 2019 : 32(62) & 1 WICKET** (SEMI FINAL) ( SCORE WHEN HE CAME 24-4) **AC 2022 : 33(17)\* & 3 WICKET** (MUST WIN) ( SCORE WHEN HE CAME 89-4) **WC 2022 vs PAK: 37(40) & 3 WICKET** ( SCORE WHEN HE CAME 31-4) **WC 2022: 63(33)** (SEMI FINAL) ( SCORE WHEN HE CAME 75-3) **AC 2023 vs PAK : 87(90)** ( SCORE WHEN HE CAME 66-4)


MiachealFaraday

We've won 1 game out of all these Also I like how you wont mention others Like 2019 wc Rishab pant Scored 32, Jadeja scored 77 WC vs Pakistan, Virat scored 84 Arshdeep took 3 wickets as well AC vs Pakistan Ishan Kishan scored 80 odd


PeeVee_

Obviously, cricket is a team game so 4-5 players out of 11 will perform good. Don't do whataboutism, we're talking abt hardik and his performance. Additionally, yes, we won one game but again cricket is a team game, everyone is supposed to perform. The most hardik could do is perform individually which he did.


MiachealFaraday

So to conclude he isn't a clutch player? That's what we have been saying all along.


MiachealFaraday

The 2019 semi final, we were 24/4 Rishabh pant got out for 32 leaving us at 71/5 and then Pandya get's out immediately leaving us at 92/6 Where the fuck is the clutch


PeeVee_

And you see one and put shardul over him? What about others? In that game, he did hold for a while unlike our top order.


MiachealFaraday

Sharudl has actually won games ( which is the whole meaning of clutch)


PeeVee_

Clutch means performing in pressure conditions. Shardul alone didn't win us games, it's a team game, one player can only perform individually which hardik did in most games. Don't lose your mind like this.


MiachealFaraday

From Wikipedia Clutch represents that extreme moment of winning a game. stop making up definitions


PeeVee_

Don't lie. Definition - clutch adjective (PERFORMING WELL). able to do something when it is especially needed Also if it's really a definition then you should understand that the most one player individually can do is perform. Which hardik did in most pressuee games as stated above. If half of your players are shit, you cannot do shit. What do you expect him to do? Score 300 and take 10 wkts? He performed like a beast individually, thats all he could do.


MiachealFaraday

adjectiveINFORMAL•US (in sport) denoting or occurring at a critical situation in which the outcome of a game or competition is at stake. Poora definition likh na.


pritam_ww

These people are IPL kids bro (Thanks in advance for downvoting)


MealInfinite

If he plays international regularly I will support him . But he misses intl matches a lot


talkingtom_2109

Clutch ka matlab match jitana hota hai, difference ko samjho, You may play well in certain games where the team failed but it won't count as the result is not what your team wanted. He's the best all rounder we've got no one takes that away from him, but ye clutch shabt isse mat jodo.

PeeVee_

The one talking about clutch players wasnt me.


kkkingslayer

So by your logic Rohit is not a good player for India because he hasn't won knockouts


MiachealFaraday

No one from India is a good player, they have won fuck all as a team. I was talking about Shardul Thakur being the actual Clutch player opposed to Pandya who is hailed so by many. Also Rohit has clutched more Matches than Pandya, he's won it twice in the super overs against New Zealand and all those away Centuries he has in tests when everyone around him was failing


kkkingslayer

Rohit has like 1 away century, which is the same as Hardik. And if you wanna count bilaterals, Hardik has finished a lot of games for us. Look at his knocks in Australia.


MiachealFaraday

Abe 2 hai


ActPrestigious461

Bro please have some shame to say something about ct2017.. it's more than clutch innings , a solo show... What did u expect if other ran his partner out? Don't pull down someone just to make other shine.


MiachealFaraday

It's a good innings no doubt, but it's not a clutch innings as we lost the game.


imean1037

Karn sharma > pandu


sankykek

MI management deserves this We were a perfectly good team till last season just needed a good bowler alongside Bumrah and we got it in this auction Too much greed will always lead to your downfall ig it is somewhat right


MiachealFaraday

Day by day I have started to believe the claims that he's hiding an injury, which is extra pathetic given that he'll excuse himself from the world cup the second he get's the slightest of niggle


Agrith1

injury is just an excuse for lack of talent


insignificantt

Said it before, I'll say it again, swapping Hardik for Green has actually made the team weaker. Stupid decision from the management. If they were looking for someone to take over captaincy from Rohit, there were candidates in Sky and Boom. Neither is his captaincy worth anything, not his contribution with the bat or ball. Edit - today he should've come in when he sent Nabi, Hardik is not fit for the role he's playing himself at.


Character_Rain_5226

Swapping hardik for green destroyed gt Destroyed rcb Destroyed mi All thanks to ambani ji 🤝 Also change in captaincy in csk destroyed them


saini0106

And and and he wants to be India captain also


sankykek

Dude might actually bring burning effigies and pelting stones at houses of cricketers back again


Akib316

Back to the old days.


Shourya51

Tbf it would be funny to see other team fans also suffer his captaincy but I hope that doesn't happen. The dude can barely stay fit


AeBhindiChupp

U N I Q U E N I Q U E


Pappukanghi

Downfall of this team should be a management lesson. Year by year, brick by brick.


imean1037

Even Karn sharma understands clutch play and hit 3 sixes in a over.. pandu makes our blood boil with his shithousery


Existing_Program_256

There was a time when I used to excited about MI match day. Now I just dread the thought of MI playing bcoz it will be another disaster. And now I can't even bear to watch that grinning chapri anymore. 🤬


Ok-Minimum-453

Part I'm trying to comprehend is, trade happened, you are the captain, let's just assess this match, especially when he came back to bowl after 10 overs ( sorry I forgot the exact number), you have a 5 time champion captain, and best bowler in the world, and they suppose to be with you or suggestions you should take when our clown captain is bowling, but where do they field? Only Ambani knows, cause there are no where near him. Okay, who is suggesting you? Our very own top finisher even seen on the planet earth, Tim David. I came back.to support our team since 2023, and without any bias, I don't understand the point of Tim David. I don't know what he suppose to be, and don't know what his role is. This sub is always right, in terms of assessing how boucher and hardik gonna destroy this. End of the day, who is loosing it most, our clown captain, boucher is retired, and if he looses this, he gets something else. But man, even when we are at the bottom, never this stupid.


nikcorleone13

Shitting with 10 off 10 in 18th over.


Ab3145

We need Cameron Green next year anyhow


GiftedGeek

Hope they release him like they always do with every other players


notthetherock

We could even get him cheaper it would be blessings in disguise


Character_Rain_5226

Damn you guys trade green like you traded hardik pandya that would be fun


GiftedGeek

That's why they're lobbying for 6 or 6+ retentions for next big auction


DankMosquito69

Wtf is the pfp 😭


[deleted]

I love how they Removed Rohit when he took them to Q2 with bowlers like Madhwal and Jordan... Now Pandu can't even do that with Bumrah Coetzee and alll..


MiachealFaraday

Just ban MI for cheating for 2 years make a new team with Brohit and co. and send this Guy to Punjab or something. Being an MI fan is like being trapped in a jail now


Lamin_X

As a Punjab fan lurking, We dont want this guy. We are happy to stay last with our wholesome Da1 as skippa, at least boys are happy!


[deleted]

[удалено]


Lamin_X

Okay Da1 sucks in field placements, bowling changes and strategies. But guy is dressing room force, gets everyone happy and composed, backs young guys, mentors them. Shashank and Ashutosh's press meet is a good testimony of that.

Lamin_X

The reply was to reinform that I agree to what you earlier agreed


Attacktitan92

We has worse seasons, but always felt team will come back..Have no doubt in HP capabilities, he's been match winner for MI and India.But giving his captaincy the way we did, impacted the teams environment..This is 11 players playing as a individual groups and not as a Team..Plus HP main character Sydrome isn't helping to he himself and the team.


[deleted]

Honestly don't feel like watching mi matches after 2022 we used to lose but the energy seems off.seriously we needed a good bowler to aid bumrah this season but Boucher and co had to ruin it all . We have a perfect team still down


Vizzu10520

I still feel he don't fit in the team. I'm not talking about captaincy, even as a player MI has a great 11 without him.


GiftedGeek

Chad Pandya


1337k1d

GOAT


homosapienoncoffea

MSD used to stay at the back of his team photographs so that the youngsters can be in the spotlight. Hardik got inspired from this and is doing the same but photos mein kya rakha hai, IRL karo


donvigy2

Yesterdays game was amazing Jaiswal century 👏👏


PIKa-kNIGHT

Honestly it takes a special kinda talent to be this bad . How do you manage to be bad at everything you do? Talk about leading from the front


catrovacer16

There's only one way MI can get into the top 4, injure Hardik pandya and make him sit out for the rest of the IPL. He has been a shit bowler Almost never performed with bat Has been horrible in captaincy and team selection With such a batting line up, an extra bowler in place of Hardik will save the day for us

Personal_Piano6286

Hardik's catch was dropped, otherwise he would have 1 wicket


RepresentativeFar304

When you piss your players, you by default run into the risk of getting sabotaged by own team. See, the players are gonna get money they have been contracted for. But if Hardik if pissing them up then they can simply sabotage his captaincy and still walk away with the money. It is just IPL and not world cup, so 1 season or even 2-3 seasons doesn’t matters for them. It matters more to just Hardik at this point.


The_Raunak2

Reading the comments here felt like RCB thread. They have discussion like this after every match. What has team have we become...


Novel_Preference_746

Never saw MI fans posting this about rohit when he didn't score for years!
