Tue Nov 26 00:09:50 UTC 2024: ## Arjun Tendulkar Re-Signs with Mumbai Indians in IPL 2025 Auction
**Jeddah, Saudi Arabia:** The two-day IPL 2025 mega auction concluded in Jeddah with some surprising results. While established players like David Warner, Shardul Thakur, and Mayank Agarwal went unsold, Arjun Tendulkar found a buyer in the second round. Mumbai Indians secured his services for his base price of ₹30 lakh.
Tendulkar, who first joined the Mumbai Indians in 2021 for ₹20 lakh, has played a limited role in the IPL thus far, featuring in 5 matches and taking only 3 wickets. Despite his modest IPL record, the franchise showed faith in the young all-rounder, opting to retain him without competition from other teams.
The auction also saw 13-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi become the youngest player ever to participate, being picked up by Rajasthan Royals for a significant ₹1.10 crore. This year’s auction highlighted a stark contrast between the high demand for some young talent and the unexpected absence of several well-known players.
