Mumbai Indians fans came together to honour Rohit Sharma with a touching tribute at the Wankhede Stadium, celebrating his legacy in Test cricket. Ahead of their crucial IPL 2025 fixture against Delhi Capitals on Wednesday, a sea of fans dressed in special blue jerseys and unique masks featuring Rohit's smiling face filled the stands, creating a powerful visual homage to the man affectionately dubbed 'Mumbai Cha Raja' (the King of Mumbai).

The occasion was marked by the distribution of customised jerseys boldly bearing the phrase 'Mumbai Cha Raja'. The fans also sported specially made masks showcasing the former Test skipper’s iconic smile. Organisers deliberately chose blue jerseys, instead of traditional Test whites, to maintain clear visibility during the match, which is played with a white ball.
