MI New York has been doing well in MLC 2024. Mumbai Indians might look at some of the players who are a part of this franchise. They could target them at the next IPL auctions, which is set to be a mega auction. Here, we take a look at the list of two good MI New York performers whom Mumbai Indians will target for IPL 2025.
1) Trent Boult
It would be tough for Rajasthan Royals to retain Trent Boult because of the limited retentions each team will get. Hence, the Kiwi could go under the hammer in the IPL 2025 Mega Auctions. Mumbai Indians will be keen to get back the man who did so well for them.
He has also been doing well in the Major League Cricket. So far, he is the second-highest wicket-taker for the franchise after Rashid Khan. MI has not gotten a good left-arm pacer since Boult. Hence, if the Kiwi is available in the market, despite his age, they must target him. This way, he could take care of the powerplay while Bumrah could be unleashed in other phases.
2) Kieron Pollard
Kieron Pollard is one of the good MI New York performers whom Mumbai Indians will target for IPL 2025. Yes, you heard that right! In the past, we saw Lasith Malinga becoming a backroom member and then going back to the auctions to become a player again for MI. There is no reason why that must not happen with Pollard.
He has been in smashing form in MLC 2024. He is just 37 and can surely be available for two more seasons. Yes, he will be in the auctions but there may not be a lot of suitors. Hence, Mumbai can sign him for a cheap rate and then install him at No.6 to form a brilliant combination with Hardik Pandya.
