Puthur impressed before getting injured midway through IPL 2025•BCCI
They’ve released four overseas players, but none of them were regulars. Out go Lizaad Williams, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Bevon Jacobs and Reece Topley.
They’ve retained Will Jacks, the England allrounder, who shores up the middle order with Sherfane Rutherford, traded from Titans.
The surprising aspect of MI’s release list are a few uncapped Indian names who you thought have the potential to build on. Vignesh Puthur, the left-arm wrist spinner, and Andhra seamer V Satyanarayana Raju, who was touted to be an exciting death-overs prospect.
Not so much of a surprise that they’ve traded Arjun Tendulkar to LSG, after having received a handful of games during his five seasons with the team.
MI have a purse of just 2.75 crore left.
