'To Pin Blame On Hardik Is Unfair, Nobody Has Turned Up': Ashwin Defends MI Captain Amid Struggles

By IANS News May 15, 2026 • 11:56 AM View: 111

T20 World Cup: With the Mumbai Indians enduring a disappointing IPL 2026 campaign, former India all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin has come to the defence of captain Hardik Pandya, stating that the team’s poor performances should not be pinned on him alone.

MI, who have won just four of their 12 matches this season, were the second team to be eliminated from playoff contention, with their captain struggling with form and injury.
