Fans, on Thursday, were left surprised after Mumbai Indians launched their very own gaming chair. The five-time IPL champions took to social media to announce this development as they wrote, “Cheer for Mumbai Indians in style with the World's First Mumbai Indians Chair.” The chair is priced at Rs 29,999 and has the Mumbai Indians' blue and gold colours. While the base colour is blue, which sports the MI logo, there are golden stripes, much like in their IPL 2023 jersey. Additionally, they have also introduced a six-month no-cost EMI option for fans who want to own this special chair, which was out on a limited edition offer. The original price of this Mumbai Indians-themed gaming chair was Rs 44,999, which was slashed to Rs 29,999.

Many fans felt that Rs 29,999 was way too expensive for a gaming chair and reacted to the post made by the Mumbai Indians. Some joked that they could buy other stuff with the money instead of spending it on this chair. One fan even 'ordered' this chair. Take a look at some of the reactions by the fans.

Mumbai Indians started their IPL 2023 campaign on a disastrous note, losing to Royal Challengers Bangalore in a one-sided contest. The five-time IPL champions posted 171/7, a total that RCB chased down within 16.2 overs, with Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli scoring stylish half-centuries. The Rohit Sharma-led side next face Chennai Super Kings at home and would hope to register their first points of the tournament from that match.
