All the star players from all around the world participate and play for the ten franchises in these two and half months. The Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians are two of the most successful franchises in the IPL. They also have the two biggest fanbases in the IPL.

This attracted widespread controversy and trolls from the Mumbai Indians faithful and Rohit Sharma fans.
Rohit Sharma has led the Mumbai Indians to 5 IPL titles. On the other hand, the evergreen MS Dhoni has led the Chennai Super Kings in basically every season that they have played.

Uthappa praised Rohit for being himself on the pitch, saying that he wasn’t afraid to show his feelings. All things considered, Uthappa’s comments illuminate how Sharma, a leader, has developed his own style by incorporating lessons learned from his experiences and traits.
Uthappa said: “We must also remember that he had been a part of the Deccan Chargers that had won the IPL in 2009. He had a feeling of what it takes to win. He was an integral part of that side as well. One thing about Rohit is that he’s a very self-assured person. Nonchalance is a way of life for him.
As a leader, he picked up a lot of nuances from MS (Dhoni). But he’s added his own touch to it and made it his own. He’s not scared to show his emotions on the field. It’s very unique to Rohit. It’s only something that he does.”
