Who is Robin Minz, the first tribal cricketer to play in IPL 2025?
Who is Robin Minz-The world’s richest cricket league, IPL, has started. Many players are aiming to make a comeback for the Indian team through their performance in this league. Among the wicketkeeper-bats, everyone is keeping an eye on the performance of Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson, KL Rahul and Dhruv Jurel. Among them, another wicketkeeper-batsman is going to create history. This player is Robin Minz.
This wicketkeeper-batsman from Jharkhand considers Mahendra Singh Dhoni as his role model. Three wicketkeepers from Jharkhand have been sold in the IPL auction. Ishan Kishan, Kumar Kushagra and Robin Minz were sold while Chennai Super Kings retained Mahendra Singh Dhoni. With this, Robin Minz is going to record the first tribal player in IPL history. Robin would have become the first tribal to play in the IPL last season.
In the 2024 edition of IPL, there was a competition between Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians to buy Robin. In the end, Titans bought Robin for Rs 3.6 crore. But the rules were strange. Robin got injured just before the IPL started. Robin could not play a single match of the IPL due to a bike accident. Then the rules were strange. Robin Minz was once again involved in this year’s IPL mega auction. And this time he was bought by Mumbai Indians.
Robin is very likely to play this year. Mumbai Indians have two wicketkeeper batsmen in Ryan Rakeelton and Robin. Even though he did not play in the first match, Robin is likely to play. Robin said that facing players like Jasprit Bumrah in the nets will help him in the future.
