Delhi: In an exciting match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, Mumbai Indians defeated Delhi Capitals by 12 runs. Many players played an important role in this victory, but Rohit Sharma is the most discussed. He did not do anything special with the bat in the field, but sitting in the dugout, a brain bet which changed the direction of the match.
Rohit’s gesture and Karna’s bowling
During the 14th over of Delhi’s innings, former Mumbai captain Rohit Sharma indicated the spin bowler Karn Sharma to change the ball in gestures with a dugout. Karna accepted this advice and sent Abhishek Porel to the pavilion with the new ball. After this, KL Rahul’s wicket also fell in the next over. This strategy of Rohit was completely useful and proved to be helpful in winning Mumbai.

Karn Sharma became the hero of the match
Karn Sharma, who landed as an impact player, broke the back of Delhi’s batting with three important wickets. He brought Mumbai to a strong position in the match with his accurate line-length and experience. His bowling finally became a big reason for victory.
Rohit is getting credit
After this victory, social media and cricket fans are praising Rohit Sharma. He is being called a ‘mastermind’. But cricket experts Sanjay Bangar and Sanjay Manjrekar do not fully agree with this. He believes that not Rohit, but Karn Sharma and Hardik Pandya are the real entitlements of this victory.
Hardik and Karna should get credit
Sanjay Bangar said that Karn Sharma bowled brilliantly and captain Hardik used him at the right time. It is not enough to just give advice, the real work is in the field. In such a situation, the credit of victory should go to both of them.
Sanjay Manjrekar favors Hardik
Former Indian player Sanjay Manjrekar also said, “May be advised from outside, but depends on the captain whether he agreed to him or not. Hardik obeyed Rohit and that decision proved to be correct. If that decision was wrong, the whole responsibility would have been the responsibility of Hardik. So he should get the full credit of victory.”
