Jasprit Bumrah has officially rejoined the Mumbai Indians (MI) squad ahead of their high-profile IPL 2025 clash against the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on April 7. The star pacer recently completed his rehabilitation at the BCCI’s Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru following a back injury sustained during the Sydney Test in January 2025. His return is a significant boost for MI, who have struggled in the tournament with just one win from their first four matches.
Though Bumrah has joined the team and participated in match simulations, it remains uncertain whether he will play against RCB. Reports suggest that MI might adopt a cautious approach, possibly delaying his inclusion until he is fully match-fit. He may instead feature in MI’s subsequent games, such as their fixture against Delhi Capitals on April 13 or Sunrisers Hyderabad on April 17.
