Rohit Sharma was dismissed from the crease while chasing a target of 241 in IPL 2026 as Mumbai Indians faced Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The MI captain had made 19 runs from 13 deliveries when he left the field during the run chase, and his early exit during a high-pressure pursuit immediately became a major talking point. With Mumbai needing Rohit to stay at the crease for a long spell to help them overhaul the total, the fact that he walked off without completing his innings sparked fresh concern among fans and team staff.
Reports indicate Rohit Sharma was dealing with a hamstring issue and chose to withdraw as a precaution. He was listed as “retired hurt,” which means he is expected to be assessed and could potentially return to bat again, depending on how the injury is evaluated in the coming hours.
More updates are expected as the situation develops.
