Mumbai Indians included many strong players in their team in the mega auction of Indian Premier League 2025. Not only this, before this auction they had also retained five Indian players. These players were Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, Tilak Verma and Suryakumar Yadav.

After the IPL 2025 auction, Mumbai Indians team is looking very strong. Recently, former player Akash Chopra presented his side regarding the Mumbai Indians team. According to Aakash Chopra, Mumbai Indians team can qualify in the playoffs of Indian Premier League 2025. Not only this, he also said that he would be quite surprised if the team does not qualify for the playoffs.

Aakash Chopra shared a video on his official YouTube channel in which he said, ‘The first 12 players are looking good. You can even go up to 13 as the team will need backup as well. The team’s backup is not that good. Fitness will also be very important. It is very important to see whether the bowling lineup of Mumbai Indians remains fit or not.

If all the players remain fully fit then the team can secure its place in the Final 4. I would be surprised if the team does not make it to the Final 4. To tell the truth, I was quite surprised last season also. It seems that a lot of things did not go well for the team last season but now it has become a whole family.

Mumbai Indians team will definitely win at least 5 out of 7 matches in Wankhede: Aakash Chopra

The former player further said, ‘It will be very important to see how the team performs at Wankhede because it is their home. Looking at the way the team is setup, it can be said that Mumbai Indians will definitely win 5 out of 7 matches at Wankhede. They can register victory in 6 matches also.

Even though the team has less spinners, the fast bowling lineup is quite strong. Mitchell Santner’s role is going to be very important in the upcoming season.
