Mumbai Indians crashed out of the IPL 2026 title race even before the group stage concluded. The five-time IPL winners finished their campaign as the ninth 10-team in the points table. It is not speculative that Hardik Pandya is all set to leave the franchise.
Ahead of the India vs Afghanistan series, Hardik Pandya is reportedly set to join the BCCI’s CoE on June 2. He is expected to stay at the NCA for around 10 days, as his fitness is under scrutiny. The board has named Hardik Pandya for the 3-match ODI series against Afghanistan, which will start from June 13.

Hardik Pandya is currently doubtful for the India vs Afghanistan series
Pandya’s participation in the series is subject to his fitness status. If he clears all the fitness trials, then he will get the certificate to be in the bilateral series. But if he fails to prove his fitness, then the board can prevent him from facing Afghanistan.
Hardik Pandya was sidelined for multiple matches in IPL 2026 with back spasms. He missed the crucial matches against the Delhi Capitals (DC), Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). Despite the injury rumours, the all-rounder was spotted doing intense training in the nets and eventually returned to action before the season came to an end.
Pandya could join a new team ahead of IPL 2027
More than Hardik’s availability in the Afghanistan series, fans are now more curious about his next move ahead of another Indian Premier League season. There are multiple teams, like the Kolkata Knight Riders, Delhi Capitals, Lucknow Super Giants, and Chennai Super Kings, who could be in search of a new captain for the IPL 2027 season. If Pandya comes into the players’ auction, then he will be in demand.
