Mumbai Indians (MI) are facing a challenging season in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, as they currently occupy the second-bottom position in the tournament. With Hardik Pandya returning to MI as captain, speculation has arisen regarding Rohit Sharma’s future with the franchise. There is discussion about whether Sharma will remain with the team beyond this season or if he will depart. Let’s explore five players who could potentially leave MI after IPL 2024.
Players who could leave MI
| Player | Role |
| Rohit Sharma | Batter |
| Suryakumar Yadav | Batter |
| Tim David | Batter |
| Nehal Wadhera | Batter |
| Mohammad Nabi | All-rounder |
Rohit Sharma
Rohit Sharma was removed from the MI captaincy before the start of IPL 2024. Rohit had led the team for 10 years, making it challenging for him to play under another captain within the same team. Therefore, he could explore other options and potentially move to other franchises in the next season.
Suryakumar Yadav
Suryakumar also appeared to be unhappy with the decision to appoint Hardik as captain. Additionally, he has not been seen in his usual form this season. Other teams would likely be interested in adding SKY to their roster at a higher price. Therefore, there is a possibility that he could leave the franchise next season.
Tim David
Tim David was exceptional in the previous season, however, he did not perform well this season. MI pay 8.25 crore to the Australia cricketer and need valuable contribution from him.
Nehal Wadhera
MI have not given a single match to Nehal Wadhera in this season. The young batter was impressive in the previous season, having scored 241 runs in 14 matches.
Mohammad Nabi
Mohammed Nabi has not made an impact in the tournament, as he has not taken a wicket this season. As an Afghanistani all-rounder who is aging, this could be his last IPL season.
