    Mumbai Indians' former captain Rohit Sharma has received a special "IPL 18" memento for his incredible 18-season journey in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

    The honor was conferred by BCCI President Roger Binny ahead of the Mumbai Indians' match against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Wankhede Stadium.
