AB de Villiers Discusses Rohit Sharma's IPL Future

AB de Villiers has dismissed rumors of Rohit Sharma joining Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) for IPL 2025, calling it highly unlikely with a mere 0.1 percent chance. De Villiers emphasized that Rohit's long-standing loyalty to Mumbai Indians (MI), where he was recently removed as captain in favor of Hardik Pandya, makes the move improbable. He suggested that such a transfer would generate massive headlines, potentially eclipsing Hardik Pandya's previous move back to MI. Amidst speculation of a rift between Hardik and Rohit, former cricketer Mohammad Kaif has urged RCB to pursue Rohit as a captain. De Villiers also expressed confidence in Faf du Plessis continuing as RCB's leader, stating that age should not be a barrier, and noted that Virat Kohli would support him. As the IPL mega-auction approaches, team dynamics and player transfers remain a hot topic in cricket discussions.
