IPL 2022: Expected Retain Players Ahead Of Mega Auction

2) Mumbai Indians

Mumbai Indians are arguably the greatest IPL team of all time. One of the major reasons for their success has been their core group of players. Thus, they would retain their core.

Their skipper Rohit Sharma would be the first name on their retention list. Jasprit Bumrah has been one of the most valuable players for quite a long time and thus, he would be another player MI would love to retain. However, it is Pollard who has won the five-time champions in the big games and he only seems to be getting better with age.

Thus, retaining the current ODI and T20I skipper of West Indies is an absolute no-brainer. Now the last retention is a tricky one as MI has a lot of match-winners on their side. Although the likes of Hardik Pandya, Ishan Kishan, Quinton De Kock, and Krunal Pandya have been superb, MI would still retain Surkyakumar Yadav owing to his impact and ability.

Expected Retentions: Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Kieron Pollard
