IPL: ‘We will miss him/her…’ Hardik Pandya angry at not being able to include the star batsman in the team

New Delhi. Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya on Sunday, November 1, said that he/she knew that it would be difficult to bring back Ishan Kishan with his/her skills in the mega auction of the Indian Premier League. Indian wicketkeeper batsman Kishan was not included in the retention list of Mumbai Indians. This five-time champion team had retained former captain Rohit Sharma, current captain Pandya, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Verma and Jasprit Bumrah.

Ishan Kishan has been bought by Sunrisers Hyderabad, who made it to the final last year, for Rs 11.25 crore in the next season. Mumbai Indians had stopped bidding on Kishan after the bid reached Rs 3.20 crore. Kishan’s base price was Rs 2 crore. In a video shared by Mumbai Indians, Pandya said, “Ishan Kishan has been the freshness and energy of the team.”

This love and warmth was very natural for him/her.
