It has been reported that the Mumbai Indians want to buy Tamil Nadu player Ravichandran Aswin at a higher price. Fans are now wondering why the Mumbai Indians like him, who previously played for the Chennai CSK team and the Delhi Capitals team.
Ravichandran Aswin, who has not played in international cricket for the past four years, has recently proved his mettle by playing in the T20 World Cup and against South Africa. Also has more experience in IPL matches. It is reported that the Mumbai Indians will spend up to Rs 7 crore on him in terms of being the best spinner.
Ravichandran Aswin also knows the captaincy very well. So the Mumbai Indians team management has decided that he can lead the team when they are tired. Earlier, the team had two spinners, Rahul Sagar and Kuldeep Yadav, but now it is said that the team only wants to bid for Rahul Sagar.
The auction for the 15th season of the IPL will be held on the 12th and 13th in Bangalore. The Mumbai Indians, who retain four players, namely Rohir Sharma (Rs 16 crore), Bumra (Rs 12 crore), Suryakumar Yadav (Rs 8 crore) and Kiran Pollard (Rs 6 crore), will be bidding for 17 of the remaining Rs 48 crore. It is said that up to Rs 7 crore has been allotted to Ravichandran Aswin.
Ashwin, who started playing in the IPL for Chennai CSK in 2009, played for Pune, then for the Punjab Kings and then for Delhi in 2020 when the team was suspended. So other teams may try to bid for him. It is also rumored that the new team, the Ahmedabad team, may try to bid for him.
