How Many Matches will Rohit Sharma Miss After Injury?

Mumbai Indians opener Rohit Sharma is set to be unavailable for the side for the next two matches due to a hamstring concern. The injury occurred during their previous match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, where one of the best batsmen in IPL, Rohit Sharma, had to leave the field midway through the chase after experiencing discomfort while batting.

He retired hurt in the sixth over of the second innings, which caused more trouble in Mumbai’s pursuit of a big target and eventually ended in defeat. As per the latest Rohit Sharma injury updates, the franchise has not yet officially confirmed the extent of the situation. A clear update is expected from the team management during the pre-match press conference scheduled for April 15.

Which Matches Will Rohit Sharma Miss in IPL 2026?

As per a report from NDTV, the Mumbai Indians have been dealt a major setback with Rohit Sharma ruled out for at least the next two matches due to injury. The veteran opener is likely to miss key fixtures against the Punjab Kings on April 16 and the Gujarat Titans on April 20. Rohit has been one of Mumbai’s more reliable performers this season, scoring 137 runs in four innings.

His absence comes at a difficult time for the five-time champions, who have struggled to find rhythm despite starting their campaign with a win over Kolkata Knight Riders, which ended their 14-year-long streak of opening-match defeats.

Since then, MI have slipped into a losing run with three straight losses, leaving them in a tough position early in the tournament. They are up against the Punjab Kings in their next match, and will need a strong all-round team performance to beat one of the best teams in IPL of the ongoing season.
