Rohit Sharmas Availability Clarified Ahead of LSG Match
Rohit Sharma has missed out on a number of games for Mumbai Indians. Playing just 4 games, he suffered an injury in the match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. It is now being reported that Rohit Sharma will decide his availability for the upcoming match against LSG.
Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants will be going against each other tonight at the Wankhede Stadium. This will surely be an intense game, as both teams are standing at the bottom of the table. With Mumbai Indians eager to regain its winning momentum, the team is also facing issues with the unavailability of Rohit Sharma.
Their most experienced batsman has not been able to feature for them in a number of games. He last played for the team in the match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. However, he suffered with an injury during the chase and was retired hurt following the same. Since that clash, Rohit Sharma has not featured in any game for the team.
Fans expected that he would be back in the match against Chennai Super Kings. But that also didn't happen. With the next game against Lucknow Super Giants, there is an update on his availability. According to the reports, Rohit Sharma will be taking a decision on whether he would be playing in today's game or not.
Our Take
Rohit Sharma had a strong start in the IPL 2026 season but it got affected due to an injury. With the Hitman now aiming to make a comeback, his team has not been able to do well in the games they played without him. It is true that Mumbai Indians needs an experienced batsman like him at this stage, and if he won't make a comeback in the match against LSG, it will be impossible for MI to reach the playoffs.
