**Jeddah, Saudi Arabia –** The Mumbai Indians, five-time IPL champions, have made a relatively restrained start to the IPL 2025 mega auction in Jeddah. On the first day of the auction, they secured only four players, with the most significant investment going towards the acquisition of New Zealand fast bowler Trent Boult for Rs. 12.50 crore. Other notable additions include Deepak Chahar (Rs. 9.25 crore) and several other players for considerably less.
The team’s current squad includes retained stars Jasprit Bumrah, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Rohit Sharma, and Tilak Varma. With a remaining purse of Rs. 2.45 crore and two overseas player slots still available, the Mumbai Indians have indicated a strategic approach to the remainder of the auction.
