Rohit Sharma's Emotional Dugout Moment Set Internet on Fire After MI's Last IPL 2025 Match

While playing their last IPL 2025 match, Mumbai Indians saw an unplanned and wonderful moment between Rohit Sharma with a young player named Mhatre where he worked hard for a candid response that fans absolutely loved. This brief moment which was filmed near the dugout area after the game, for everyone, reinforced that cricket is not just a game with scores, but experiences, memories and relationships with respect amongst players.

"We Played Together in Ranji Trophy" - Rohit's Genuine Connection

The video starts with Mhatre running up to Rohit in awe, as he greets him "well played yaar". Suryakumar Yadav (Sky) who also had a smile on his face standing beside said, "He wanted to meet you, means Rohit Sharma". What took place next, was a moment that made every fan feel something - Rohit replied firstly, like a true gentleman, saying "We played together in Ranji Trophy".

This almost blunt sentence statement revealed Rohit's humility. Even though he is one of the biggest cricketing stars in the world, he made it his mission to identify and acknowledge a fellow cricketer he had played with in his domestic cricket past. The statement not only came as a surprise to Mhatre but also, won over any social media observers. Also, it reminded everybody that legends never forget their journey and always respect history.

“How to Play the Pull Shot?” - A Mildly Surprising Question, A Gentle Smile

Mhatre didn't just stop at a greeting, as he took advantage of a great opportunity to learn from one of the very best, asking the question, “How to play the pull shot from here?" - referring to the angle of the wicket or how it was delivered.. Rohit, who is universally renowned for his effortless elegance and exquisite power through the pull shot, smiled gently not knowing whether to laugh or give a genuine answer

While the fun to see how Rohit's response played, there was something very symbolic in this moment, crowning IPL for what it is: a space for young talent to learn. Rohit's humility and Mhatre's sincere curiosity were channeling beautiful teacher-student energy at that moment, showing fans that as much pressure as those moments have, there is always room for learners and, of course, teachers.

This simple exchange - a shared sense of respect, remembrance, and mentorship - mattered to us more than all the boundaries, or wickets. We were reminded why Test match fans loved this game, not just for the madness that's in and intensity of the atmosphere, but for the relationships this game builds. And, once more, Rohit Sharma meant it: his greatness isn't just in what he does off the field, but off it!

The 38th match of IPL 2025 was played between Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings. In this match, Mumbai Indians defeated Chennai Super Kings by 9 wickets and registered their fourth win of the season and made a big jump in the points table.

 Talking about this match, Mumbai Indians team captain Hardik Pandya won the toss and decided to bowl first and invited Chennai team to bat. In response, Chennai Super Kings had a very bad start and Rachin Ravindra was dismissed by Ashwini Kumar after scoring five runs. After this, Chennai sent 17-year-old young batsman Ayush Mhatre to bat at number three and this young player played a brilliant innings of 32 runs with the help of four fours and two sixes in just 15 balls.

After this Ravindra Jadeja and Shivam Dubey handled the innings and batted well. Ravindra Jadeja scored 53 runs with the help of four fours and two sixes in 35 balls.

The IPL 2025 clash between Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad took place at the Wankhede Stadium, with MI winning the toss and opting to bowl first. The decision proved wise as the pitch offered challenges for the batters. Sunrisers Hyderabad struggled to build momentum, finding it tough to rotate the strike and put up a dominant score. Mumbai’s disciplined bowling attack kept the pressure on, restricting scoring opportunities and capitalizing on the conditions effectively.

Among SRH’s batters, Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen were the only ones who looked relatively comfortable at the crease. Abhishek, coming off a century in the previous match against Punjab Kings, was expected to deliver big. However, he could only manage 40 runs off 28 balls, which included seven boundaries. Klaasen also tried to stabilize the innings, but the overall team performance with the bat lacked the spark needed to put up a massive total.

A light-hearted moment added some humor to the intense contest. During the match, Suryakumar Yadav was seen checking Abhishek Sharma’s pockets in a playful manner, seemingly searching for a hidden cheat sheet. The amusing interaction between the two players drew laughter and was a refreshing break from the high-stakes action on the field.

History about the incident

Abhishek Sharma, who recently scored a century against Punjab Kings, celebrated the milestone in a unique way by pulling out a chit from his pocket and showing it to the camera. The note read, "This one's for Orange Army," making it one of the most memorable celebrations in IPL history. His gesture was widely appreciated, highlighting his emotional connection with the fans and dedication to the Sunrisers Hyderabad team.

Interestingly, Abhishek’s opening partner Travis Head revealed that he had been carrying that chit in his pocket throughout all seven matches of the season. This fun detail added a layer of intrigue to the recent clash at Wankhede. During the game, Suryakumar Yadav was seen playfully checking Abhishek’s pockets, seemingly curious to see if the chit made another appearance. The light-hearted moment between the two players brought some comic relief and was enjoyed by fans and viewers alike.

The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) has adopted an important measure to enhance its T20 Mumbai League through mandatory participation of leading Indian cricketers who combine international success with local talent. Indian cricketers Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, and Shivam Dube, along with other Mumbai-based players, need to play in the league except when selected for the England tour or injured. The MCA extended this requirement to all local Mumbai-based Indian cricketers, including Ajinkya Rahane, together with Prithvi Shaw and Shardul Thakur, to enhance tournament competition.

Each Indian player who joins the league can receive a participation fee of Rs 15 lakh apart from their auction proceeds. The association demonstrates its dedication to bringing in prestigious cricket names by offering a substantial payment to reward domestic cricket players. According to reports, Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, and Shivam Dube expressed interest before the tournament started due to the rising popularity of the T20 Mumbai League among seasoned players.

The LICE has gained more prominence through its selection of Rohit Sharma as the 'Face of the League,' since he represents India in both ODI and Test formats. The league's ambassadorship under Rohit Sharma assures immense benefit to league exposure while drawing more spectators towards this tournament. The six IPL titles Rohit won prove why he serves as a powerful ambassador for this fast-growing tournament since he brings unrivaled star power and credibility.

🚨 BREAKING🚨

A Platform for Emerging Talent

Amid its third season, the T20 Mumbai League received masses of support through the registrations of more than 2,800 local cricketers ahead of the following edition. Running from May 26 to June 5 consecutively after the IPL, the tournament brings eight teams, including two new franchises that will participate in this edition. A player auction in May will still be an important milestone as teams look to develop their teams with a combination of seasoned and emerging athletes. 

MCA secretary Abhay Hadap is thrilled and expressed this: "The response to Season 3 has been tremendous, which shows the vibrancy of the unquenchable cricket love of Mumbaikars. We are committed to developing the players of tomorrow." With star players, a legendary ambassador, and a focus on developing the local talent, the T20 Mumbai League is positioning itself to become a staple of Mumbai's cricketing heritage while giving fans a thrill they won't forget.

"Ekdum Bakwas! – Suryakumar Yadav’s Hilarious Reply to Viral Article"

Mumbai Indians' ace batter Suryakumar Yadav has responded to a recent news story that claimed he was dictating player movements within the team. The report claimed that Surya was involved in some players quitting the team, and this had raised eyebrows among fans and experts.

Reacting to allegations, Suryakumar dismissed allegations as utterly unfounded. He took to social media and condemned rumors, reiterating that his priorities still stand with the game and team performance.

 Indian cricketer Suryakumar Yadav has a sarcastic social media appearance and bold batting. Reacting, he asked the journalist to prove his truth.

Is a script writer or a journalist? I will start reading these articles and stop watching comedy movies if it is desired to laugh. Absolutely Bakwas! "

"Script writer hai ya journalist? Agar hasna hai toh I will stop watching comedy movies and start reading these articles. Ekdum bakwas 🤣🤣🤣"

The fans laughed at his bizarre response, which spread rapidly. Commentary means that he found the article exaggerated or misleading, so it reads more like imagination work than real journalism.

Although Sky's fickle attitude made it a pleasant event for fans, this is not the first time a cricketer has responded to media stories. His blog post contributed another published chapter to his personality so far, whether it is a real annoyance or just a friendly befitting reply.

The Internet is surprised - is this article really that is very efficient in humor or Suryakumar trolling?

Batting Wins the Game for GT

GT faced no trouble, as they comfortably managed 196 runs with 8 wickets taken in the 20 overs. Sai Sudharsan managed the innings, while both Shubman Gill (38) and Jos Buttler (39) played their parts. Rashid Khan and Rahul Tewatia’s cameos played a major impact as wickets fell regularly.
