Rohit Sharma is one of the most successful cricket team captains in Indian cricket history. Not only has the man proven himself as a leader while being at the helm of affairs in the Indian Premier League (IPL), leading his franchise Mumbai Indians (MI) to five titles in the tournament history but has even led the Indian cricket team (ICT) to titles and series wins across formats. India's International Cricket Council (ICC) title drought also came to an end under his captaincy with the Men in Blue managing to win the T20 World Cup 2024, their first title win in 11 years and their second T20 World Cup triumph after 2007.

Despite all his success as a proven leader and his form with the bat in international cricket, Rohit was removed as the captain by MI ahead of the IPL 2024. That has led to speculation that Rohit Sharma can be released by the team before the IPL 2025 Auction. It is no wonder that Rohit will be sold for a big amount, in case he is released by the franchise. But a massive claim is being made by a journalist on social media which has gone viral on social media.

Rohit Juglan, who is associated with RevSportz, has made a massive claim saying that two-rival teams of MI- Delhi Capitals (DC) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), are willing to spend up to Rs 50 crore for the MI legend alone. The video of Rohit Juglan making the massive claim has gone viral on social media.
