Delhi: The journey for Mumbai Indians in IPL 2025 has been disappointing so far. The team has missed its legendary fast Balbad Jaspreet Bumrah. After defeat in the first two matches, Mumbai won against KKR. However, the team is clearly visible to the lack of Bumrah and everyone is waiting for when the legendary pace will return to the field.
Bumrah has not played any match against Australia since the Sydney Test (Border-Gavaskar Trophy). Due to a back injury, he has missed three matches for Mumbai Indians in IPL 2025 so far and can stay out of some more matches.
When will Bumrah return?
According to the report of ISPNcricinfo, Bumrah has now reached the last stage of his recovery and can return to the field soon. It is being told that he is preparing to pass the last fitness test in BCCI’s Center of Excellence.
However, Bumrah will not play against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on 5 April today, as well as his playing in the next match of MI on the home ground against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on 7 April is also doubtful. So now the question comes that will he be seen playing against Delhi Capitals on 13 April?
The report also said that after Bumrah’s injury, the BCCI and he himself has taken the recovery very carefully. A big reason for this is that after IPL, Team India has to play an important series of five Test matches against England. In such a situation, the board does not want to have any haste in Bumrah’s return.
Bumrah’s return will be very important not only for Mi but also for Team India, because both his experience and speed in the Test series against England matters a lot.
