Indian Premier League 2020 is on its way. Therefore, all the franchises are working out strategies, players are coming together to practise, and fans are eagerly waiting. Amongst this rush, Rohit Sharma points out that Mumbai Indians have been winning this event every odd year. This means that Mumbai Indians picked up the trophy in 2013, 2015, 2017, and 2019.

Now, this is Indian Premier League 2020. This is an even year. However, Rohit Sharma feels that Mumbai Indians and their fans are in for a treat since this is the 13th version of the event. 13 is an odd number. So, if the mysterious connection of odd numbers and Rohit Sharma plays its charm, then there is a possibility MI might bag the trophy this time.

The point to keep in consideration is that it’s not the franchise which works with odd numbers but it’s Sharma. When he was playing with Deccan Charges in 2009, that trophy was bagged by DC.
