MI Retained Players List 2021

The Mumbai Indians squad looks almost unaltered as far as the batsmen and all-rounders are concerned, as they have too decided to retain most of their players from the last season. Unfortunately, IPL's all time leading wicket taker and MI's ace spearhead, Lasith Malinga is not a part of MI's Retained Players List.

MI has decided to retain most of their championship winning squad. Heroes of 2020 such as Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav have impressed the management enough to have cemented their positions in the team. MI also has an excellent all-round unit in Hardik and Krunal Pandya and Kieron Pollard. Jasprit Bumrah, as expected, will be at the helm of MI's pace attack.

Not only Malinga, MI seemed to have released almost their entire overseas pace attack as Nathan Coulter-Nile, James Pattinson and Mitchell McCleneghan were also released. Amongst others players who were released are Prince Balwant Rai, Digvijay Deshmukh and Sherfane Rutherford.
