Dear @mipaltan

I feel lucky that a small account like mine'a voice potentially has reached the top management at MI and so as a genuine well wisher of MI I would be doing great disservice if I do not put forward my honest views now.

This is potentially my last twitter post on MI until I see a change and until I see them playing for the badge again. It is high time I look after my well being because being too passionate about your team also takes a lot out of you as a human.

This is not from an MI fan who got attracted to this franchise because Rohit Sharma won trophies with them. This is from a fan who has been with the team even when they failed in 13 out of 18 seasons and who will always be with them no matter what. This is from someone who supported a team that had fighters like James Franklin, Aiden Blizzard, Sarul Kanwar, Jayasuriya, Abu Nechim, Ambari Rayudu, Aditya Tare, Lendl Simmons, Mitch McClenaghan, etc. Was always there for support no matter where we finished.

You chose Hardik to replace Rohit, we supported.

You chose to release Pollard and then release his replacement Tim David too, we supported.

You chose to make blunders in decision making for past several seasons, we still supported.

You chose to go into IPL 2026 auction with almost no purse showing extra confidence on players like Deepak Chahar when you knew that those 9 crore would help us strengthen key areas, we still supported.

But we draw the line when players show from their body language that they don't really feel like playing for the badge and that it is all fun and games even if we lose..it is okay it is chill..nah sorry.

Same mistakes, no sensing of moments that could turn the game and not turning on the screws was again seen vs SRH. 243 had to be 270..and then when you took 3 wickets in 4 runs you had to try and knock over Klaasen. But again dropping shoulders in Powerplay and then post those 3 wickets..Bumrah looked so tired it hurt us all.

When you feel nothing can get worse than RCB loss, Punjab came, then CSK came, then SRH. The word fortress has become a joke for Wankhede.

When Rohit became the captain, no one knew how it would end up, but atleast he had the passion for the badge when he said "Teams should fear while coming to play MI at Wankhede." Yesterday I saw the same man holding his head in disappointment looking at what had happened to the Kingdom he built brick by brick..all this just hours before his birthday. Does someone who brought so much success to your franchise deserve this? Do your fans deserve this?

Even during 2022 Wooden spoon season we got so many special moments like defending 9 runs vs GT, that RCB post requesting us to beat DC, the rise of Tilak, Brevis and Tim David. We are not behind trophies we are behind making memories with players who know what playing for the badge means.

We have pivoted away from picking players who can fight for the badge, to now picking players who are just shiny toys, not caring about team and squad balance. We were never a side historically that depended on individual brilliance but that is exactly what happened last season when SKY's Orange Cap and Bumrah's purple patch covered all the cracks.

You will need to earn this fan back MI, not with results, just with the desire that the players want to play for the badge. Gave 19 years to this team and the support during 14 of them where we won nothing was equally passionate.

It is high time I look after myself and my health because maybe Sport was the only source of happiness for now. Very tough to weather the storms in life and then turn up supporting a team that does not know to play with passion.

I don't recognize my club anymore. Hope I do one day, hope this all changes one day. Will always bleed blue, but for now from a distance.

Can you win this fan back with your cricket? Can you make tough calls to take MI back to glory days? Time will tell. For now, it is a pause from my end.

-From a part of your dear Paltan 💙🙏🏻

A Captain should never be dropped midstream nor given the option to opt out … sends wrong signals …. Have seen Captain s like Mark Taylor , Azharuddin etc persisted as captain for a year despite bad form …. @ImRo45 deserved more respect and faith from the management … Bizarre coz it happened for the first time in Indian cricket history …. Blunder - for a fallen lighthouse is more dangerous than a reef !
