Former Indian team cricketer Virender Sehwag believes that Mumbai Indians may not retain Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya for the upcoming IPL season.

The performance of Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024 has been very poor. The situation is that the Mumbai Indians team, which has won this title five times, is at 9th position with only 4 wins after playing 13 matches in the season. Former Indian team cricketer Virender Sehwag believes that the reason for the poor performance of the team has been the bad season of the big players of the team, due to which he has given a big statement.

Actually, Virender Sehwag has predicted that before the mega auction of IPL 2025, Mumbai Indians team will retain only 2 players and these players will not be Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya. Virender Sehwag said, 'Look at the big names in the Mumbai team, but to win they all have to perform. Rohit scored a century and the team lost in that too. How did he perform in the remaining matches?

He further said, 'Ishan Kishan has been getting out in the powerplay throughout the season.

So the only two players who are certain to be retained are Jasprit Bumrah and Suryakumar Yadav. If he retains the third and fourth players also, it will be worth watching.

It is clear from Virender Sehwag's statement that according to him, Mumbai Indians will not bet on both their current captain Hardik Pandya and former captain Rohit Sharma in the upcoming IPL season, although whether this happens or not will be known only in the future. Let us tell you that in the current season, Rohit Sharma has so far added 349 runs for the team in 13 matches. Whereas Hardik Pandya has been able to score only 200 runs with the bat and take only 11 wickets while bowling.
