Renowned cricket commentator Navjot Singh Sidhu, known for his bold opinions and unique style, has made headlines not just for his cricket commentary but also for sharing a personal update regarding his wife, Navjot Kaur Sidhu.
While Sidhu has been vocal about cricket matters, recently he echoed the sentiments of many Rohit Sharma fans regarding Sharma’s removal as Mumbai Indians’ skipper. Despite Sharma’s successful stint as captain of the Indian national cricket team, he was replaced by Hardik Pandya as captain of the IPL franchise.
Sidhu expressed disbelief at the decision, questioning what Sharma had done wrong to deserve such treatment. He emphasized the importance of success in such decisions and speculated that had Sharma won the crucial matches, there would have been no controversy.
Amid rumors of Pandya’s potential elevation as India’s skipper for the T20 format, the BCCI secretary clarified that Sharma would continue as India’s captain, including leading the team in the upcoming T20 World Cup in June.
Sidhu suggested that if the BCCI had announced Sharma’s captaincy earlier, Mumbai Indians might not have replaced him with Pandya. He implied that the franchise might have reconsidered their decision had they known Sharma would return as India’s T20I captain in 2024.
Currently, Pandya leads Mumbai Indians, while Sharma remains at the helm of the Indian team across all formats. As Sidhu navigates cricket commentary and personal challenges, wishes for his wife’s successful battle against cancer pour in from all corners.
