After a lot of speculations, Mumbai Indians finally decided to retain their former skipper during the retention day. It was a no-brainer from the franchise to retain one of their best players, and a five-time IPL champions with them.
Rohit Sharma was the skipper of the Mumbai Indians for almost 10 years and then MI decided to give the captaincy armband to the returning Hardik Pandya. While this infuriated the former skipper, but he remained professional and continued to give his best for the team.
This season, after getting retained, his price has also increased as he aims to take MI back on top.
Comparing Rohit Sharma's IPL 2024 vs IPL 2025 price
In the 2024 season, Rohit earned 16 crores from the Mumbai Indians. As per the contract from 2022-24, his price was fixed and he was one of the top earners in the league.
However, Rohit's IPL salary increased this season as he was the fourth retained player in the side after Jasprit Bumrah, Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya. For the upcoming season, he was retained at INR 16.30 crore, meaning that there was an increase by 1.875%. Not the most significant high, but considering his age, Rohit will take the amount.
Comparing Naman Dhir's IPL 2024 Vs IPL 2025 price
Talking about Naman Dhir, the star batter was acquired by Mumbai Indians For just INR 20 lakh in the 2024 mini auction. He played some crucial knocks last season, and this time around, his price increased by 2525% as he was bought for 5.25 crore by the five-time champions.
Compared to Rohit, the hike looks amazing, but since Rohit's salary is already high, his salary difference of just 1.875% doesn't look big. However, Naman's fee hike shows that talents gets the reward.
