IPL 2025: Did Lucknow make a plan of '50 crores' to buy Rohit? Statement of team owner Sanjiv Goenka


Posted on 29th Aug 2024 12:42 pm by rohit kumar

There may be a mega auction this year for IPL 2025. Talks are currently going on between the BCCI and the franchise owners regarding the auction and the rules related to it. Usually, when there is a mega auction in the IPL, any team changes completely. Last time, four players were allowed to be retained in the mega auction. However, this time this number has not been decided yet. It is believed that by including the right-to-match card, the team will be able to retain a total of six players. At present, all eyes are on Mumbai Indians. They have many players to retain. These include many stars like Hardik Pandya, Suryakumar Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Tim David, and Rohit Sharma. In such a situation, no information has come out yet about whether the franchise will retain Rohit or not.

 

Hitman's dispute with Mumbai Indians is not hidden from anyone. Before the IPL 2024 season, the franchise removed him as captain. Hardik Pandya became the new captain of the team and the fans were very angry with this. This decision was criticized by fans as well as former cricketers. At the same time, Rohit and his wife Ritika were also very angry. Given Rohit's brand value, if he comes into the auction pool, he will not have a shortage of contenders. According to some media reports, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) may not allow teams to retain more than six players (including Right to Match). In such a situation, the possibility of Rohit playing for a new team in the next season is quite high.

 

Meanwhile, news went viral on social media that the Lucknow Supergiants team owned by Sanjiv Goenka is ready to spend up to Rs 50 crore to buy Rohit. Goenka has now denied those rumors in an interview. During the interview on Sports Tak, he was asked - There are rumors that LSG has set aside Rs 50 crore for Rohit Sharma. Is this true?

 

In response to this, Sanjeev Goenka said, 'You tell me one thing, do you or anyone know whether Rohit Sharma is coming to the auction or not? All these speculations are without any reason. No one has any information on whether Mumbai Indians will release Rohit Sharma or not, whether he is coming to the auction or not. Even if he comes, how will you use 50 percent of your salary cap on a player?' On this, the anchor asked, 'So is he on your wish list?'

 

However, Goenka did not give a direct answer to this. He said, 'Everyone has a wish list. You want the best player, the best captain in your team. It is not about wishing, it is all about what you have and what is available, what you can do with it. I can want anyone on my team, but the same thing applies to all franchises. You will not get everyone.
