Mumbai Indians MI’s mistress Nita Ambani has given her 8 crore rupees for the upcoming season of IPL 2022 despite not being available in the IPL Mega Auction-2022 of England’s dashing all-rounder Jofra Archer. Bought for a huge amount of Rs. After all, why did he do this, he disclosed this. After the auction was over, Nita Ambani said that the target of her team is ‘short-term target and long-term vision’.
Significantly, Jofra Archer is currently in rehab. He is recovering from surgery on his right elbow. Not only this, experts believe that it is impossible to play him in this season (IPL 2022). But, knowing this, the 5-time IPL champion ‘Mumbai Indians’ made a big bid for this dangerous fast bowler of England on the second day of the auction on February 13. However, it was also seen that Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (Sunrisers Hyderabad SRH) also did not shy away from bidding.
One thing is completely clear from this that the eyes of the IPL franchise team managements are not fixed on one season, but on the plan of time. Even if you have to go out in the field without Archer this season, the plan is for a long term plan. Neeta Ambai said, “Mumbai Indians MI has always had a short-term target and a long-term vision. Some of the players that we have bought have been bought keeping in view the future.
It is worth noting that Liam Livingston, another player of the England cricket team, was bought by Punjab Kings (PBKS) for Rs 50 lakh. But the sale of Jofra Archer was astonished for Rs 8 crore. Apparently, fast bowler Jofra Archer, who is recovering from elbow surgery, was allowed to go for auction in view of the possibility of playing in IPL 2023 and IPL 2024.
Apart from this, after buying Indian cricket team’s young opener Ishan Kishan for Rs 15 crore 25 lakh, Mumbai Indians MI hired Singapore’s Tim David for 8 crores in view of his finishing skills. Bought it for Rs 25 lakh. After the auction, Nita Ambani said, “I am thrilled about the new season. But, of course, big auctions are very difficult.”

Nita Ambani further said, “Mumbai Indians have been a part of our family for years, it is very difficult to leave the players. We will miss them. Be it Hardik Pandya, or Krunal Pandya or Quinton de Kock or Trent Bolt. We tried to buy them again. But, we are satisfied with what we got.”
He said about Rohit Sharma, “We brought him after the first 3 seasons (IPL Tournament). He later became the captain of the team. And today, he is also the captain of the Indian team. This is a wonderful thing for us. We hope that in the times to come, many more young players will play for the country and make Mumbai Indians MI proud.”
