'Thanos Joining Avengers!': Mumbai Indians Star Keiron Pollard Sold To Arch-Rival Super Kings; Netizens REACT

In a surprising turn of events, Kieron Pollard, the former Mumbai Indians star, has been sold to Joburg Super Kings for the upcoming SA20 season. The West Indies all-rounder was purchased by Joburg Super Kings for a price of R1.5 million (approximately ₹87.1 lakh) without any competition. The unexpected move has left millions of cricket fans shocked and reacting on social media.

The Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings are arch-rivals in the Indian Premier League (IPL), with the match between the two teams often referred to as the "El Clasico" of the Indian Premier League. This particular development has taken fans by surprise, given the strong association Pollard has had with Mumbai Indians over the past 15 years, both as a player and a coach.

Social media users have been quick to react to the news, comparing the move to Thanos joining the Avengers, and expressing their strong opinions. Some fans have criticized the decision, calling it a disgrace and the worst pick after Pollard's retirement. Others have welcomed the move, hoping for a trophy this time or jokingly suggesting that they can't defeat him, so they might as well buy him.

Pollard's departure from Mumbai Indians has left fans nostalgic, as he is remembered for the good memories he made with the franchise.
