While some fans wanted the match vs GT to be his last, others tweeted that he was finished. Here are few reactions.

As far as the match is concerned, GT won the toss, and opted to bowl. Batting first, Rohit took MI off to a flyer as he scored a quickfire 43 off 28 deliveries.
Sharma's opening partner, Ishan Kishan, looked in good touch as the southpaw raced away to 45 off 29 deliveries. MI lost their way in the middle overs as Surya, Pollard, and Tilak couldn't contribute much. But, powered by Tim David's 44 of 21 deliveries, MI eventually finished with 177 on board.
