Bumrah is the top retention at Rs 18 crore while the trio of Hardik, Rohit and Surya have been retained at Rs 16.3 crore each. Middle-order batter Tilak has been retained at Rs 8 crore.

Rohit was widely believed to have played his final game for MI during their last league match of the 17th season, against Lucknow Super Giants at the Wankhede Stadium. However, it appears the franchise intends for the ‘Hitman’ to continue at the franchise instead of heading elsewhere.
