It is not known on who will open for MI along with Rohit Sharma. Ishan Kishan was the opening partner of Rohit for the past few seasons, but he is no longer a part of the team. Hence, the 'Hitman' will be having a new opening partner. On that note, let's take a look at 3 players who can step on the pitch with Rohit Sharma.
Ryan Rickelton
MI has Ryan Rickelton an option of opener. South Africa's 28-year-old player recently had a spectacular show in the Champions Trophy 2025. Apart from that, Rickelton had caused havoc with the bat in the third season of the recently-concluded SA20 league. Ryan's current form is very promising, and he might give a strong start to MI when facing CSK.
Robin Minz
Young wicketkeeper-batter Robin Minz is part of MI squad for this season. Last season he was a part of Gujarat Titans, but he got ruled out due to an mishap. Robin has dominated the domestic circuit a number of times with his explosive batting, which is why MI took him.
Will Jacks
England's star allrounder Will Jacks is all set to spread his talent for MI in IPL 2025. Jacks is the top contender to be the opening partner for Rohit, with his experience being the main reason for this. This right-handed player has performed impressively in some of the major T20 leagues.
