Rohit Sharma Injury Worries Mumbai Indians After Third Straight Defeat!

In Indian Premier League 2026, Mumbai Indians suffered their third consecutive loss, going down by 18 runs against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Wankhede Stadium on Sunday. The defeat has raised serious concerns, especially after star opener Rohit Sharma picked up an injury during the match. Chasing a massive target of 241 runs, Rohit attempted to give Mumbai a solid start but looked uncomfortable while running between the wickets in the sixth over. The team physio rushed onto the field and applied a bandage to Rohit’s right hamstring, indicating muscle tightness.

Despite trying to continue, Rohit eventually retired hurt in the same over, leaving the crowd stunned. He did not return to bat later in the innings. The Mumbai Indians management is currently awaiting scan reports to assess the severity of the injury. A team update suggested it could be a hamstring strain, and if it turns out to be a Grade 1 injury, Rohit may require up to four weeks of recovery, potentially missing a significant portion of the season.
