**Jeddah, Saudi Arabia –** English power-hitter Will Jacks has been acquired by the Mumbai Indians for a hefty Rs 5.25 crore at the IPL 2025 auction. The Royal Challengers Bangalore, who released Jacks prior to the auction, opted not to retain him using their Right to Match (RTM) card.

Jacks, who burst onto the scene last season with a stunning unbeaten century off just 41 balls against the Gujarat Titans, was a highly sought-after player. His explosive innings, which included 10 sixes and five fours, powered RCB to a remarkable nine-wicket victory. His memorable performance also included a 28-run over against Rashid Khan, featuring four consecutive sixes. He further cemented his impressive showing by sharing a 166-run unbeaten partnership with Virat Kohli. The Mumbai Indians will be hoping Jacks can replicate this explosive form in the upcoming season.
