IPL 2025: Will Mumbai Indians Retain Hardik Pandya, Or Is Surya Kumar Yadav Set To Take Over As Captain | Sports Live

As anticipation builds for IPL 2025, fans are eager to know which players Mumbai Indians (MI) will retain amid new retention rules. Under the guidelines, MI can retain players at various price points: ₹18 crore for two players, ₹14 crore for two others, and ₹11 crore for one player, alongside provisions for uncapped players at ₹4 crore. Rohit Sharma's future remains uncertain after he was replaced as captain by Hardik Pandya last season. With Surya Kumar Yadav now leading, MI must decide whether to retain him or Pandya at ₹14 crore. The team faces tough choices regarding budget allocation, as retaining multiple star players could limit their spending power during the auction, affecting their overall strategy for the season ahead.
