India, Oct. 31 -- Rohit Sharma is reportedly set to return as Mumbai Indians captain for IPL 2027, with the five-time champions preparing to reverse their leadership decision after a disappointing period under Hardik Pandya.

According to a report by The Indian Express, Rohit has agreed to take charge again following discussions with the franchise.

The development could mark another major change at Mumbai Indians as they look to rebuild after finishing ninth in IPL 2026.

The reported move would bring back the captain who delivered all five of Mumbai's IPL titles.

However, Hardik's future and the franchise's long-term leadership plans remain important questions ahead of the new season.
