IPL 2025 takes a twist as Mumbai Indians snag Will Jacks for ₹5.25 crore after RCB refuses to call him back! 🎉🏏 Check it out!
In a stunning turn of events at the IPL 2025 auction, the Mumbai Indians (MI) have secured England all-rounder Will Jacks for a staggering ₹5.25 crore! Jacks, who previously thrilled fans with an explosive 41-ball century while playing for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) last season, became the center of attention as MI and Punjab Kings engaged in an intense bidding war. Ultimately, MI emerged victorious, much to the delight (and perhaps envy) of cricket fans and RCB supporters alike.
The decision from RCB not to utilize their Right to Match (RTM) card to keep Jacks left many in shock. With a performance record like his, one would think that the franchise would leap at the chance to bring back a player who had once ignited the field. However, RCB's unexpected maneuver opened the door for MI, who seized the opportunity as soon as it presented itself. Rumors started flying about backstage deals and strategic moves, especially after Akash Ambani, MI's owner, was spotted thanking RCB for their decision—a moment that sent social media abuzz with speculation and intrigue.
Will Jacks, with a base price set at ₹2 crore, attracted bidders like a magnet, with his talent and flair promising an electrifying season ahead. The English batter's transition to MI is already shaping buzz among fans who are eager to see how well he integrates with the team’s current lineup. His addition not only strengthens MI’s batting but also promises explosive action that can keep spectators on the edge of their seats. After all, what’s cricket without a little drama?
In the grand scheme of IPL history, this auction revealed how much franchises are willing to invest to secure talent that can potentially turn the tide of a match. Jacks, now a bright star in the MI roster, could stand as a testimony to how decisive moments and calculated risks in player auctions can redefine the season. Will Jacks may have just found a new home, but the excitement surrounding his journey in the 2025 IPL has only begun!
