IPL Auction 2025: After spending a total of 39.55 crore on 18 players at the IPL 2025 Mega Auction, the Mumbai Indians (MI) have, with their retentions and buys, built a potential title winning squad. Locking horns with a lot of other teams in fierce competition, MI roped in players like Deepak Chahar, Will Jacks, and the one making the headlines for the team, Trent Boult.
Reuniting with his former franchise, Boult was the most expensive buy for Mumbai Indians, going for a whopping Rs. 12.5 crore, followed pace-bowling all-rounder Deepak Chahar, who was bought for Rs. 9.25 crore. Grouped with Jasprit Bumrah, the trio make up for a solid bowling unit that would trouble the batsman under the lights at the Wankhede Stadium.
MI had managed to secure their star quintet in captain Hardik Pandya, Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma for Rs 75 crore before the auction in Saudi Arabia.
