Abhishek Nair will be the head coach of Kolkata Knight Riders in the next season i.e. IPL 2026. Abhishek has already been associated with the Kolkata Knight Riders team for five years, but this will be the first time that he will play the role of head coach of an IPL team. Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians have created a sensation on social media by making a mysterious post.

Mysterious post of Mumbai Indians

On the afternoon of October 30, Kolkata Knight Riders confirmed through social media that Abhishek Nair will now be the head coach of the KKR team. Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians also shared a mysterious post, in which Rohit Sharma’s picture has been shared. More than the picture of Rohit Sharma, the caption of the post has created a ruckus.

Mumbai Indians wrote in the caption of their post, “The sun will rise again tomorrow, this is confirmed. But it is not only difficult but impossible at night.” Actually the English word for night is ‘Night’, but MI has written it as ‘Knight’ in its post. Just like it is written in ‘Kolkata Knight Riders’.

Rohit Sharma’s trade!

Abhishek Nair becoming the head coach of KKR and this post of Mumbai Indians right after that can be seen as a taunt. Actually Abhishek Nair and Rohit Sharma are good friends. Just a few days ago, Rohit was seen training with Nair.

A fan has raised the possibility that Mumbai Indians may trade Rohit Sharma with KKR. Some fans have already started congratulating the Kolkata Knight Riders team. However, no statement has come in this regard.

Let us tell you that before IPL 2024, the captaincy of Mumbai Indians was snatched from Rohit Sharma and handed over to Hardik Pandya. Claims are also being made on social media that after losing the captaincy, Rohit may also decide to leave MI.
