MI play most of their matches at the Wankhede and that is the ground where Rohit has grown playing the game.
Mumbai: Rohit Sharma is easily one of the best white-ball players of the generation. Even at 36, he is a threat at the top of the order and looks like he can easily continue for the next three seasons at the IPL as well. The most successful IPL captain stepped down from the position of being the leader of the side, yet he remains one of the most important batters in the MI line-up. With talks of mega-auction taking place ahead of the next season, one reckons MI should hold onto Rohit and not let him go anywhere. Here are some of the reasons why MI should retain Rohit.

Meanwhile, MI play RCB in their next game on Thursday.
