Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene has recently revealed that Jasprit Bumrah was carrying a small injury from the T20 World Cup into IPL 2026, which affected his rhythm and sharpness despite the Mumbai Indians giving him enough rest.
As a result, Bumrah managed only four wickets in 13 matches this season. The fast bowler was also rested for the upcoming one-off Test and three-match ODI series against Afghanistan at home.
