Three-time champions Mumbai Indians posted a harmless post on social media which read: “Paltan, an exciting update is heading your way. Prepare yourself to welcome new faces in our team.

But it didn’t end there as Rohit kept on persisting as to what was this all about. His post read: “I’ve checked my DMs. I am fine with these new faces and it’s really cool. But where are my bullets?”

Later, teammate Hardik Pandya also joined in the fun when Rohit asked regarding Hardik Pandya’s hair: “And what’s wrong with @hardikpandya7’S hair? Why is he on fire?”
