After leading Mumbai Indians to five IPL titles, with the most recent victory in 2020, Rohit’s departure would mark the end of an era for the team. He first joined MI in 2011 after being sold from Deccan Chargers, and under his leadership, the franchise became one of the most successful in IPL history.

Sports Yaari reports that Rohit is likely to join Lucknow Super Giants, a move that could help the team strategically manage its retention slots ahead of the upcoming mega auction. This shift comes after Hardik Pandya, who recently returned to Mumbai Indians from Gujarat Titans, was named captain of the Mumbai side—despite some backlash from fans.

If the transfer takes place, it will be interesting to see what role Rohit Sharma will play at Lucknow Super Giants, especially since he recently retired from T20 internationals after winning the ICC T20 World Cup. Rohit continues to serve as India's captain in both ODI and Test formats, but his contribution to Lucknow could bring a new dynamic to the team's performance in IPL 2025.
