MI Retained Players 2025: Here’s a full list of MI retained and released players ahead of the IPL 2025 Mega auction.
Mumbai Indians made some major changes in the previous edition of the Indian Premier League that didn’t go well according to the plan. Such as replacing one of the most successful captains Rohit Sharma with Hardik Pandya.
The five-time champion MI ended up in the last spot of the points table winning only four games out of 14. IPL 2024 was one of the most embarrassing seasons for one of the top IPL teams.
Ahead of IPL 2025, MI will be forced to let go of many crucial players due to the BCCI’s retention policy of 3+1 ahead of the IPL Mega Auction. However, the Mumbai franchise will keep certain players in the squad for the next IPL 2025 season. This blog will have the expected players’ names who will be retained by the MI in the IPL 2025 season.

Mumbai Indians (MI) IPL 2025 Retained Players List
Amid the rumors of Hardik Pandya’s release from the MI has been talk of the town. However, there is no official announcement from the MI franchise which appointed Hardik Pandya as a new skipper of the MI. Even though Pandya failed to lead the Mumbai Indians in the IPL 2024, there is no doubt he is an excellent all-rounder. While playing 13 games, Hardik bagged 216 runs with a 143 strike rate and scalped 11 wickets. His consistent performance in the T20 World Cup 2024 brings some assurance that the franchise will retain Hardik Pandya for the upcoming season.
The table shows the overall details of the expected IPL 2025 MI retained players list-
No. | Player | Role | Price |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Hardik Pandya | Allrounder | INR 15 Cr. |
2 | Jasprit Bumrah | Bowler | INR 12 Cr. |
3 | Rohit Sharma | Batter | INR 16 Cr. |
4 | Suryakumar Yadav | Batter | INR 8 Cr. |
Indian top pacer Jasprit Bumrah has been one of the top performers of the MI scalping 20 wickets with a jaw-dropping economy rate of 6.48 in 13 games. Bumrah has been a top asset of the Mumbai franchise and they will definitely secure him for the next season of IPL 2025.
Former MI skipper Rohit Sharma has been in the news of leaving the Mumbai Indians ahead of the IPL 2025 season. However, it seems absurd for the franchise to lose its top performer Rohit Sharma who brings the five IPL trophies.
Suryakumar Yadav is another key player of the Mumbai Indians famous for his 360° batting style. The right-handed batter bagged 345 runs with a strike rate of 167.48 and an average of 34.50 in the 11 games of the IPL 2024 season. Undoubtedly, Sky will be on the MI retained players list for the IPL 2025 MEga auction.
