Is Rohit Sharma, the former captain of the Mumbai Indians, ending his 14-year journey with the team? Rumors are heating up that the "Hitman" might enter the IPL 2025 auction. If this happens, teams like Lucknow Super Giants and Delhi Capitals are ready to bid at any cost. Former India cricketer and current commentator Aakash Chopra has also hinted at the same on his YouTube channel.
Aakash said, "Will he (Rohit) stay with Mumbai or not? That's the big question right now. Personally, I feel Rohit is likely to stay. But if Mumbai doesn't retain him, he will have to stay with them for another three years. Unlike Dhoni with CSK, Mumbai’s connection with Rohit seems different. I think Mumbai might not retain him, and anything could happen."
Last year, Mumbai Indians faced backlash from fans when Rohit was replaced as captain by Hardik Pandya. Many fans were unhappy with the team's poor performance that season. If Mumbai management releases Rohit for the auction, fans are wondering what could happen next.
