    IPL 2025: Who among Rohit, Surya, Bumrah and Pandya will be out of Mumbai Indians? Know update

    PL 2025 Mega Auction: Discussions about the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season in India have already begun. The mega auction, set to take place in December, promises to shower money upon the players. We’ve just received a significant update ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction.

    If, for some reason, the BCCI approves the change in the retention rules, the trouble for 5-time IPL winner Mumbai Indians may increase. Fans must be wondering whether the trouble can escalate. Indeed, BCCI has the authority to establish a rule mandating the retention of 5–5 players for each franchise. We anticipate the inclusion of three Indian and two foreign players. If this happens, then Mumbai Indians will have to do a lot of brainstorming.

    The Mumbai Indians will have to release a stalwart

    If the BCCI implements a new rule, Mumbai Indians will face significant strain. The rule of retaining three Indian players may necessitate the release of one of the following players: Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, and Surya Kumar Yadav. These four players are considered to be the pivot of the Mumbai Indians.

    Hardik Pandya returned to the Mumbai Indians. They also made him the captain, replacing Rohit Sharma. A few days ago, there was a report suggesting that Surya Kumar Yadav might be considering leaving the Mumbai Indians. If this happens, then the Mumbai Indians are sure to get a big setback.

    Which team can Surya Kumar Yadav join?

    Surya Kumar Yadav may leave Mumbai Indians and join Kolkata Knight Riders. A few days ago, there was news that KKR had offered to make Suryakumar Yadav the captain and include him in the team. However, in the last session, KKR won the IPL title under Shreyas Iyer’s captainship.

    If Surya Kumar Yadav replaces Shreyas Iyer as captain, the fans will suffer a significant setback. Official information has not yet surfaced. For your information, let us inform you that Surya Kumar Yadav is the captain of the Indian team in the T20 format. Over the years, he has consistently won the hearts of fans through his skillful batting and fielding.
