Former India cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu took to social media on Saturday to shower praise on former Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma, calling him a “nageena” (precious stone). Sidhu expressed his admiration for Sharma, highlighting his invaluable contribution to the Mumbai Indians squad.
Amidst the backdrop of Rohit Sharma being replaced as the team captain by Hardik Pandya for the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season, Indian cricket fans rallied in support of the veteran batsman. Despite Rohit’s remarkable record of leading the Mumbai Indians to five IPL titles, he graciously stepped aside for Pandya.
Sidhu’s endorsement of Sharma came in the form of a video package shared on social media, with his commentary serving as the background score. In his tweet, Sidhu delivered a poignant message, comparing Rohit’s stature to that of a revered elephant, emphasizing that true respect transcends material possessions.
Sidhu tweeted, comparing Rohit Sharma’s respect to an elephant covered in dust, implying that true respect isn’t earned through material possessions like tying a cooker with a gold chain.
As Rohit Sharma navigates through the challenges of transitioning from captaincy to a key player role within the Mumbai Indians squad, the unwavering support from cricketing stalwarts like Navjot Singh Sidhu serves as a testament to his enduring legacy in the realm of Indian cricket.
