The franchise has also appointed Kieron Pollard as its new head coach, replacing Mahela Jayawardene. Pollard previously served as the Mumbai Indians' batting coach from 2023 to 2026 after retiring as a player. The management will have to take important decisions about its squad composition and leadership.
The franchise could also retain overseas players Ryan Rickelton, Corbin Bosch, Mitchell Santner, and Will Jacks. Young spinner Allah Ghazanfar could remain part of the setup. Mumbai will look to maintain a balance between experienced international players and emerging talent.
Mumbai Indians' predicted retained players list: Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Ryan Rickelton, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Corbin Bosch, Mitchell Santner, Will Jacks, Sherfane Rutherford, Naman Dhir, Mohammad Izhar, Allah Ghazanfar, Shardul Thakur and Deepak Chahar.
Hardik Pandya, Trent Boult Among Players Mumbai Indians Could Release
Captain Hardik Pandya also had a disappointing season with both bat and ball. He scored 206 runs in 10 matches at an average of 22.89 and a strike rate of 138, without registering a half-century. He also managed only four wickets at an expensive economy rate of 11.43.
The franchise could also release domestic players Robin Minz, Danish Malewar, Raj Bawa, Mayank Rawat and Krish Bhagat. Spinners Mayank Markande, Ashwani Kumar and Raghu Sharma, along with Keshav Maharaj, could also enter the auction pool.
Why Mumbai Indians Could Make Major Squad Changes Ahead of IPL 2027
The five-time champions have not won the IPL title since 2020 and have reached the playoffs only twice during this period. They have also failed to reach the final for six consecutive seasons. Under Hardik Pandya, who took over as captain, the franchise has made the top four only once in the last three seasons.
These inconsistent performances could push the management to release several established names and rebuild the squad. Hardik's struggles with the bat and ball, along with his captaincy during the last three seasons, could also prompt a leadership rethink.
