Ishan Kishan, que fue liberado por los indios de Mumbai antes de la subasta IPL 2025, es uno de los jugadores que MI debería buscar fichar.
Much like Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya, Jharkhand wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Khan shot to fame due to his standout performances for the Mumbai Indians (MI). The southpaw was arguably one of the best batters produced by the five-time champions. However, Ishan Kishan found no place in MI’s retention list ahead of IPL 2025 auction.
Will MI re-buy Ishan Kishan in IPL 2025 auction?
Mumbai Indians have retained five capped players, namely Jasprit Bumrah, Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, Tilak Verma and Suryakumar Yadav. This leaves the team with room to retain one more uncapped player. In this case, MI only have the option to buy back Ishan Kishan at IPL 2025 auction as they won’t have any Right to Match (RTM) cards left. And rightfully so, Kishan deserves to don the MI jersey once again.
Latest news
Ishan Kishan has been consistent with the bat for MI, having amassed 2644 runs in 105 matches since his debut in 2016. His best season came in 2020 when he slammed 516 runs in one season, earning himself a maiden T20I call up to the Indian team. He has been consistent with the bat for MI and has managed to score over 200 runs in almost each season.

MI’s wicketkeeper woes
Ishan Kishan was bagged by MI for Rs 5.5 cr in 2018. He saw a massive boost in pay in the recent round of auction, earning Rs 15.25 cr. Apart from his ability to bat fearlessly in the middle-order, he is also agile as the keeper and can play a vital role from behind the stumps for the team. Ishan Kishan was MI’s first-choice keeper for multiple seasons.
