MI recently announced star all-rounder Hardik Pandya’s comeback into their team. Although he was retained by Gujarat Titans ahead of IPL Auction, Pandya has now been transferred to MI for a whopping amount of Rs 15 crore.
The return of Pandya in the Ambani-owned franchise is one of the biggest trade deals in IPL history. Post Pandya’s exit from MI, the team wasn’t able to deliver those commendable performances which they were known to showcase in IPL. However, the five-time IPL champions did make it to the playoffs in the previous edition (2023).

In the last two IPLs, Pandya led the Gujarat Franchise, out of which he ended up winning the 2022 edition as a debut captain and team.
