IPL 2026: 'Can’t Be Just An Impact Player', Says Kaif As He Urges MI To Fully Utilise Rohit Sharma
Indian Premier League: Former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif believes that Rohit Sharma should remain on the field for the entire duration of a T20 match instead of being used as an Impact Player by the Mumbai Indians (MI) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026.
Rohit, who tops the list of batters with most runs for MI in IPL history, was often used as an Impact Player in the last season, which, according to Kaif, was wrong as Hardik needed his help, especially during the second qualifier played against Punjab Kings, which the Mumbai Indians lost after a brilliant knock by Shreyas Iyer.
In a tweet posted by Kaif on Thursday, he stated that MI should fully utilise the fully fit Rohit, and he can’t be just an Impact Player. Kaif feels the MI will need the five-time IPL-winning captain in crunch situations, and his presence on the field will also help skipper Hardik Pandya.
