Overview
- The franchise told Sportstar and other outlets that it is not conducting player trade negotiations and that decisions will follow a full post‑season review.
- Mumbai’s review, which the club says covers the leadership group, coaching staff and cricket operations, has left the futures of captain Hardik Pandya and batter Suryakumar Yadav unresolved.
- The club reiterated on Sunday that no trade talks were under way while the review continues, though several media reports link Pandya with interest from CSK, KKR, RR and DC.
- Pandya has completed reported rehabilitation work at the BCCI Centre of Excellence and has been seen in public and at prayer rituals as he targets a return; his fitness and role would shape any move.
- Suryakumar’s place appears tied to the captaincy decision, with Tilak Varma reported as the leading internal candidate and Yadav described by pundits as a ‘50‑50’ prospect if he is not given a leadership role.
