New Delhi: If five-time Indian Premier League champion Mumbai Indians enters the mega auction, it will try to build a strong team. The team became champion under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma in 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019 and 2020. A mega auction was held in 2022. After this, the team performed poorly in three seasons.

Under the leadership of Rohit Sharma, the team finished 10th in 2022. In 2023, the Mumbai team reached the playoffs. So Hardik Pandya returned to the team before IPL 2024. Pandya was made the captain in place of Rohit Sharma, but the team's performance was poor. The team finished last in the points table. The team would like to perform well again in 2025, but for this it will have to build a strong team.

These six players can do Mumbai Indians
Talking about the recent Mumbai Indians team, there are many players who can be retained. There are reports that the franchise may get the option to retain six players before the mega auction. Mumbai will retain about six players. Among the foreign players, no one seems to be retained except Tim David. Looking at his performance last year, the chances of retaining him are also very low.

Apart from Hardik and Surya, others can be retained
There is no doubt that Mukesh Ambani's franchise would like to retain Hardik Pandya, Suryakumar Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah. After being removed from captaincy, it is clear that Mumbai Indians have moved on from Rohit Sharma. Rohit was not happy when it was decided to make Hardik the captain in IPL 2024. The question is whether Rohit Sharma will be retained or not.

Will Ishan Kishan be retained?
Apart from Hardik Pandya, Suryakumar and Bumrah, Mumbai Indians can retain Tilak Verma. Tilak Verma's form has been excellent. Apart from this, there is also a question whether Ishan Kishan will be retained or not. If the franchise decides to retain six players, then Ishan's name can also be among them.
