Preity Zinta slams fake news around Rohit Sharma
A post went viral on X (formerly Twitter) where Preity Zinta allegedly says that she wants a captain like Rohit Sharma in the team. She was quoted as saying that her team lacks a captain who has stability and champion mindset. As we know, Hardik Pandya replaced Rohit Sharma as the captain of Mumbai Indians. This did not go down with fans of Sharma. People have booed Hardik Pandya in many of the matches. Now, Preity Zinta has clarified that she never made such a comment.
#Fakenews ! All these articles are completely fake & baseless. I hold Rohit Sharma in very high regard & am a big fan of his, but I have NEVER DISCUSSED him in any interview nor made this STATEMENT ! I also have a lot of respect for Shikhar Dhawan & he being currently injured ,… pic.twitter.com/VYbyV4eqHU

misunderstanding happens, you might not said it on camera but everyone knows your team always lacks a leader captain and champion mindset. That quote was a fact because its all in your heart that you want a strong Captain but you can’t say it on camera in respect of dhawan ? !

No way Rohit Sharma fans were hyping him as if every IPL team is interested in him for captaincy. Thanks for ending his fake PR ??

Many people are not happy with the Mumbai Indians, and media outlets take advantage of this by writing sensational headlines that link Rohit Sharma with other IPL teams to gain more clicks on their articles. It’s disheartening to see one of the most beautiful girl in the world…
