Rohit was widely believed to have made his final appearance for the franchise that he had represented since 2011 and captained for a decade after a turbulent 2024 season, in which MI made headlines for a reported divide between Pandya and Rohit as well as their below-par performances. The franchise, however, has decided to give him an extension for now and end his IPL journey wearing blue-and-gold.
