MI vs PBKS: रोहित शर्मा की जगह प्लेइंग 11 में किसे मिलेगा चांस? बोल्ट की भी होगी टीम से छुट्टी – mi vs pbks playing 11 ipl 2026 Quinton de Kock replace Rohit sharma Shreyas iyer aksp
The troubles of Mumbai Indians are not showing any sign of decreasing in IPL 2026. The team, which has suffered three consecutive defeats, has now suffered another big blow, because their most reliable batsman Rohit Sharma is out of the match against Punjab Kings.
Mumbai Indians This season seems to be completely out of rhythm. From batting to bowling, the team is struggling in every department. The team’s star fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah has not been able to take even a single wicket yet, which is shocking in itself. At the same time, Trent Boult has also proved to be lackluster by taking only one wicket in three matches.
biggest concern now Rohit Sharma Is about fitness. In the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore, Rohit Sharma scored 19 runs in 13 balls, but he had to leave the field during the power play. Earlier, the physio had come to the field, which made it clear that he had a problem in his hamstring. However, how serious the injury is has not been revealed yet. The scan has been done, but the report is awaited. Not only this, he did not even attend the practice session before the match.
Rohit Sharma has played innings of 78, 35, 5 and 19 runs in this season and he has been the most consistent run scorer of the team. In such a situation, his exit can prove to be a big blow for Mumbai Indians.
This player will get a chance in place of Rohit
Wicketkeeper batsman Quinton de Kock can be fielded in the opening as an alternative to Rohit Sharma. But doing so will affect the balance of foreign players in the team.

In this situation, one of Sherfane Rutherford, Mitchell Santner and Trent Boult may have to sit out. Rutherford played a brilliant inning of 71 runs in 31 balls in the last match, while Santner gives balance to the team. In such a situation, Trent Boult, who is struggling with poor form, can be dropped.
Who will replace Bolt?
In his place, young fast bowler Ashwini Kumar may get a chance, who plays for Punjab in domestic cricket and knows the Mullanpur pitch very well. Last season, he impressed by taking 11 wickets in 7 matches.
Apart from this, changes are also possible in the spin department. Mayank Markande, who has not been able to take a single wicket in three matches so far and has proved to be very expensive, may be given a chance in place of Raghu Sharma.
This match is very important for Mumbai Indians. The team is already under pressure from consecutive defeats and if Rohit Sharma does not play, their problems may increase further. In such a situation, the team will have to perform better in every situation, only then the hope of comeback will remain alive.
