Mumbai Indians' Head Coach Mark Boucher received a barrage of abuse online from franchise fans after he refused to answer a question over the reins being taken away from Rohit Sharma.

Earlier this year, Mumbai Indian made a stunning announcement, naming Hardik Pandya as captain for IPL 2024. 

At a joint press conference alongside Pandya, in Mumbai on Monday, Boucher was asked: 'What was the one reason that made the management decide that Rohit should not captain the Mumbai Indians and Hardik should captain?'
