Mumbai Indians return Hardik Pandya to the team. Pandya, who spent two years with Gujarat Titans, returns to MI a bigger force than he was during that time. In the interim, he has gained plenty of leadership experience, winning GT titles and finishing runner-up. On the national front, Pandya is the captain in the shortest format of the game.
After Pandya's return, Mumbai Indians had to release Cameron Green. The Australian all-rounder has moved to Royal Challengers Bangalore in a separate deal.
MI has also included Romario Shepherd in the team. Romario Shepherd joins Lucknow Supergiants after all-cash trade. One big name that the franchise has released is Jofra Archer. The last few years have been troubled for the England all-rounder due to injuries, due to which he spends more time with the physio than on the cricket field.

Cameron Green has been traded to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in a cash deal worth Rs 17.5 crore.
