IPL 2025 Auction: Goenka Responds to Rohit Sharma Rumours

The IPL 2025 auction is approaching, and there’s a lot of interest around player retention, especially for Mumbai Indians' stars like Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, and Jasprit Bumrah.

There have been rumours that Sanjiv Goenka’s Lucknow Super Giants might offer ₹50 crore for Rohit Sharma.

Goenka responded by questioning these rumours, pointing out that it’s not clear if Sharma will even be in the auction.

He also mentioned that spending a large part of the salary cap on one player would be impractical.

When asked if Sharma is on LSG’s wishlist, Goenka did not give a direct answer but noted that teams seek top players based on availability and practical needs.
