Before the start of the 19th season of the Indian Premier League, the tension of Mumbai Indians seems to be increasing. The team’s main fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah has reached BCCI’s Center of Excellence in Bengaluru. It is not yet clear whether Bumrah has gone to COE due to some injury or fitness related problem or for some other reason, but this might have increased the concern in the camp of Mumbai Indians.
According to Times of India, Mumbai Indians team has started training, but Jasprit Bumrah has not reached the training camp yet. In such a situation, his move to the Center of Excellence can be a big blow for the 5-time IPL champion team. Last week, Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene had given an update saying that 4 Mumbai players were given extra break, because the Indian team had won the T20 World Cup title some time ago.
The medical team at BCCI’s Center of Excellence looks after the fitness of the players. Recently it was reported that Kolkata Knight Riders fast bowler Akashdeep has also reached COE due to back problem. Akashdeep is out of the entire season.
The Mumbai Indians camp must be praying that Jasprit Bumrah becomes fully fit and joins the team soon. Bumrah is no less than a trump card for MI. In the T20 World Cup 2026, he made Team India return to the match by taking wickets at important junctures several times.
Mumbai Indians will start their campaign in IPL 2026 from March 29, where they will face Kolkata Knight Riders. Last season, Mumbai was out after losing to Punjab Kings in the second qualifier. Let us tell you that Mumbai last became champion in 2020, but after that it has never gone to the finals.
