3 players who can pair with Rohit Sharma to open for MI in IPL 2025

Mumbai Indians (MI) is one of the most successful teams in the tournament. They have won five trophies in 17 seasons under Rohit Sharma. He isn’t the captain this season, and neither does he have Ishan Kishan to open alongside him. Hence, MI will be looking forward to having a new player as an opener who can match Rohit’s pace or anchor the innings, allowing the batter to play freely. MI have a strong bowling line-up this time, and it will be intriguing to see how they manage their overseas players. 

Here are the three players who can open alongside Rohit Sharma in IPL:

1. Ryan Rickelton

The South African cricketer Ryan Rickelton is in red-hot form, as evident during the Champions Trophy 2025. He will surely try to capitalize on his form and play well in the upcoming IPL. He will be a good opening partner alongside Rohit. Rickelton has many shots to offer and can be a striker during the powerplays. It will be beneficial for Mumbai Indians. 

2. Will Jacks

Former RCB star batter Will Jacks is a better option in the IPL because of his proven records in the past. He did well in the previous season and the MI management was quite happy after taking him in their team. This season will be important for him to score and prove his worth to the world. 

3. Bevon John Jacobs

Bevon John Jacobs is a New Zealand batter who hasn’t made his international debut yet. However, MI bought him in the auction which means they might play him in the tournament as an opener with Rohit Sharma. He has a good record in the T20s and can be helpful to MI as well.
