IPL 2022: Hardik Pandya unlikely to be retained by MI, new teams to set to pick 3 players before auction

IPL 2022 Auction: Mumbai Indians are likely to retain Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah and one of Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kisan as 3 of their local players. There is no official confirmation about the retention and RTM rules for the mega auction.

All-rounder Hardik Pandya is likely to be sent back into the IPL auction pool by Mumbai Indians as the five-time champions are more or less sanguine about the players who are on their retention list for the 2022 season.

With the IPL set to be a 10-team affair after RP-SG bought Pune and CVC owned the Ahmedabad franchises respectively, there will be a big auction in December this year with a lot of teams restructuring their core, looking at the future.
