The Indian Premier League (IPL) Mumbai Indians (Mi) performed nothing special in the current season of 2025. Five -time champion team Mumbai has lost three out of four matches so far. Mumbai had to face defeat by 12 runs to Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in their last match. Now good news has come out for the team of Mumbai Indians.
Good news about Bumrah …
Fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah will join the Camp of Mumbai Indians in the next two days. Bumrah has got a fitness clearance from the Center of Excellence (CO) Medical Team of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). Sources told Sports Today that Bumrah will join Mumbai Indians before the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on 7 April. However, he is unlikely to play in the match against RCB.
Jasprit Bumrah was out of the first four matches in the current season of IPL. He also had to stay out of the recent home series and Champions Trophy 2025 against England. According to sources, Bumrah will have to go through some match simulation before being declared a match-fit. The COE has given him a medical clearance, but during the simulation games, Mumbai Indians Management will keep a strong monitoring on him. This is the reason why the possibility of playing against RCB is very less.
Jasprit Bumrah was running in the rehab since January after the problem caused by stress in the nickel part of the waist. Bumrah had increased his balling workload at BCCI’s Center of Excellence in Bangalore. At the same time, Bumrah himself is alert and wanted to ensure that he would be fully fit. He has done all this keeping in mind India’s five -Test series starting in England from 28 June.

In the absence of Jaspreet Bumrah, he has given players like Satyanarayana Raju, Vighnesh Puthur and Ashwini Kumar a chance to debut. Trent Bolt and Deepak Chahar are leading the attack and other fast bowling options in Hardik Pandya Line-up. Bumrah has played his entire IPL cricket for Mi since 2013 and has taken 165 wickets in 133 matches in the last few years. Ever since he started playing IPL, he missed the only IPL season 2023, then he suffered a back injury.
