Hardik's participation against the CSK match is questionable..!?

The IPL 2025 season is set to begin on march 22 and end on May 25. The IPL series is set to treat fans with a total of 74 matches over 65 days.
In this context, mumbai Indians will play their first league match against chennai Super Kings at the chepauk Stadium on march 23. The participation of mumbai Indians captain hardik pandya in this match is questionable. hardik pandya was appointed as the captain of mumbai Indians last season. mumbai Indians finished last in the series after losing 10 of their 14 matches. Due to this, the fans were very angry with hardik Pandya. However, hardik pandya performed well in the t20 world cup series that followed and was the reason for the victory of the indian team.
At the appreciation ceremony held after this, the same fans who raised their voices of protest welcomed and praised hardik Pandya. In this situation, the new season was expected to give new impetus to hardik pandya, but the very beginning has given him shocking news. hardik pandya has been taking too long to bowl overs twice in a row in the IPL 2024 season. hardik pandya was not only fined Rs 30 lakh for making this mistake three times in a single season but was also banned from playing one match.
Hardik Pandya was banned in the last league match played by mumbai Indians. Therefore, this ban is expected to continue in the current season. Due to this, hardik Pandya's participation in the match against CSK is questionable. mumbai Indians team management is going to appeal to bcci against this ban. mumbai team management is requesting that this ban not be carried over to the next season as hardik pandya has committed three fouls in a single season and the mumbai team did not qualify for the play-off spot. Due to this, hardik is unable to participate in the match against CSK.
