With just one hour remaining before the five-time Indian Premier League IPL champions, Mumbai Indians, take on the Delhi Capitals led by Rishabh Pant at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, the team has released a video showcasing their batters, Tim David and Suryakumar Yadav, practicing in the nets. However, during their practice session, the cameras and equipment worth ₹40,000 were accidentally damaged by the players. Mumbai Indians MI have taken responsibility for the damage and will cover the costs.
After the video was shared on social media, netizens quickly responded with their comments. One user expressed their surprise at the cost of the damage, while Mumbai Indians replied with a simple “Sahi mein” (Indeed). Another user jokingly suggested that if Tim David breaks anything else, he should charge for it. Someone else encouraged Tim David to perform well in the upcoming match.
Another netizen questioned why a franchise owned by Ambani would be concerned about a mere ₹40,000. Similarly, another user commented on the irony of complaining about such a small amount when Ambani is the owner. One user suggested that instead of wasting ₹40,000, it would have been better if the team had donated the money.
Lastly, a user took a jibe at Hardik, implying that the team should not be concerned about ₹40,000 when they have a player in their camp who is worth approximately ₹115 crore and has caused more damage than that.
The user’s comment about Hardik Pandya’s worth and potential damage caused by him received mixed reactions from other netizens. Some found it amusing and agreed with the sentiment, while others defended Hardik and praised his contributions to the team. Mumbai Indians did not respond to this particular comment.
Overall, the incident sparked a lively discussion among netizens, with some questioning the cost of the damage, others joking about it, and a few expressing their opinions on the team’s financial capabilities and charitable actions. Mumbai Indians’ prompt response and willingness to cover the costs of the damage were appreciated by many, showcasing the team’s professionalism and commitment.
