<p>This has been one of the recent updates that have taken social media by storm. Many say that after leaving out skipper Pandya in the previous edition of the Mumbai Indians, this year the current owner, CVC Capital Partners, is looking to sell off a major share of the franchise to Gautam Adani from the Adani Groups.<br><br>Though nothing has been confirmed yet, it seems likely that the GT franchise is going to undergo a major change.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="kl-rahul-to-leave-lsg-to-step-in-as-rcb-skipper">KL Rahul to leave LSG to step in as RCB skipper</h3>



<p>The feud that was seen between franchise owner <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanjiv_Goenka">Sanjiv Goenka</a> and LSG skipper KL Rahul after LSG?s defeat to SRH by a 10-wicket margin took the internet by storm, giving rise to several speculations that the latter would leave the team.<br><br>If reports are to be believed, Rahul is probably going to make a move for the team he started his career with in the IPL.. KL Rahul might be included by the Royal Challengers to replace veteran batter Faf du Plessis, as the 40-year-old might be left out by the Royal Challengers, as this might be the end of his IPL career.</p>

<p>The IPL franchises will all be undergoing significant changes after the mega auction, and even the teams may have new players in the role of skipper. The frontrunners will be teams like CSK, LSG, PBKS, DC, and RCB.<br><br>The Chennai franchise should now look ahead to MS Dhoni, and likely Gaikwad might not look to continue in the position. KL Rahul is supposed to leave LSG, leaving them searching for their new captain and replacing RCB skipper Faf, which will mark significant changes for both sides.</p>

<p>Punjab Kings skipper Dhawan was ruled out of the IPL following an injury, and probably at 40, the veteran Indian batter might lose his spot in the IPL. Also, last but not least, the Capitals might have to let go of Rishabh Pant as several franchises will be in the hunt for India?s best wicket-keeper batter.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="rohit-and-suryakumar-might-leave-mumbai-indians">Rohit and Suryakumar might leave Mumbai Indians</h3>



<p>The Hitman, the T20 World Cup-winning skipper of the Indian team, announced his retirement from international T20Is. Rohit, though, said nothing and was humiliated after the MI management sacked him from the position of skipper, replacing him with Hardik Pandya in 2024.<br><br>Sharma has won five IPL titles with the MI, and he will be easily roped in by any team, especially with the likes of the Gujarat Titans and Delhi Capitals, who might need a skipper and a specialist batter at the top of the innings.</p>

<p>Considered one of the closest disciples under Rohit?s wing, Surya can also follow Sharna?s steps to leave the MI franchise. However, unlike Rohit, India?s latest T20I skipper might go back to his old franchise, the Kolkata Knight Riders.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="csk-will-be-led-by-rishabh-pant">CSK will be led by Rishabh Pant</h3>



<p>With doubts still kept over, will MSD continue his field domination for CSK any further? If not, the most successful IPL franchise might be in the hunt for India?s current best wk-batsman, Rishabh Pant.<br><br>Pant might also look to leave the Delhi Capitals for an offer made by the Chennai Super Kings, who might also offer him a pre-season draft. Leading the Chennai side in itself seems like a very prestigious role, as he fills the shoes of legendary skipper MS Dhoni.<br></p>
