Mumbai Indians: The picture of the teams in IPL 2025 may appear completely changed because this time the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is going to organize a mega auction. In such a situation, many big giants are going to come in the auction and teams are going to release many giants.

Mumbai Indians team is also included in this series and they can also release many players before this time's auction. Everyone from captain Hardik Pandya to former captain Rohit Sharma is included in this list.

Rohit and Hardik may be released

Actually, before IPL 2024, Mumbai Indians had included Hardik Pandya in their team through trade from Gujarat Titans. After this, Rohit Sharma was removed and Hardik was appointed as the captain but the team could not perform well this season.

In such a situation, ever since Hardik joined Mumbai, reports are continuously coming out that Rohit may leave Mumbai. Apart from this, the franchise can also release Hardik and they can make star batsman Suryakumar Yadav as their new captain.

Ishan Kishan and Arjun Tendulkar may also be released

If we talk about wicketkeeper batsman Ishan Kishan, he has been associated with the team since 2018 but IPL can release him before 2025. Ishaan had a disappointing performance last season and in such a situation he can be released.

Apart from Ishaan, the franchise can also release Arjun Tendulkar, son of former great batsman Sachin Tendulkar. Arjun played many matches for the team last season but could not do anything special and that is why he can be released.

These 5 players can be retained

If we talk about the players to be retained, the name of legendary fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah will be the first in it. The franchise would like to retain Bumrah at any cost. Apart from him, Surya will also be retained by Mumbai Indians, who can also be seen captaining the team.

Apart from these two, Mumbai team can also retain young batsmen Tilak Verma and Nehal Vadhera, while the name of young player Dewald Brevis can be included in the list of foreign players.
