IPL 2025 ka action full swing mein hai, lekin Mumbai Indians ke liye ek badi dikkat abhi bhi bani hui hai — unke star pacer Jasprit Bumrah ka availability abhi bhi uncertain hai. MI ke head coach Mahela Jayawardene ne Gujarat Titans ke khilaaf clash se pehle ek update diya, jismein unhone kaha:
“Everyone is available except for Bumrah. Like I said in my last interview as well, it’s on a daily basis that he’s going through his program. So far, everything seems okay. But there were no timelines given by NCA [Centre of Excellence], so we’ll wait on that.”
Bumrah ko lower back injury January 2025 ke Sydney Test mein hui thi. Uske baad se wo ICC Champions Trophy 2025 se bhi out rahe aur ab lagta hai ki IPL ke kuch aur matches bhi miss karenge.
Is beech ek badi khabar yeh hai ki Hardik Pandya wapas squad mein aagaye hain. Pichle season unhe slow over rate ke liye ek match ka ban mila tha jahan Suryakumar Yadav ne captaincy sambhali thi. Rohit Sharma se captaincy lene ke baad unhe fans ka backlash mila tha, lekin tab se lekar ab tak Hardik ne kaafi kuch prove kiya hai — India ke T20 World Cup 2024 aur Champions Trophy 2025 jeet mein unka bada haath raha hai.
“I think it is just a game of cricket. Fans are fans, and emotions are a part of the game. It is true that everyone has moved beyond that, but it is amazing to see how loyalty works, even in IPL, which is fascinating to see. Twelve months on, he’s (Hardik Pandya) achieved a lot more, and I hope that people will see beyond what happened last year. I hope that we can enjoy a good game of cricket,” Jayawardene said.
Team combination mein bhi kuch changes expected hain. Pandya ke wapas aane se fast bowling unit strong ho gayi hai. Pichle match mein rookie bowlers Satyanaryana Raju aur Vignesh Puthur ko chance diya gaya tha — jahan Raju sirf ek over daal paye, Puthur ne 3 wickets liye. Ab dekhna hoga ki Robin Minz aur Raju ko drop kiya jaata hai ya nahi for the big clash at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.
MI fans ke liye yeh ek emotional rollercoaster ban gaya hai, lekin jaise jaise season aage badhega, aur bhi twists dekhne ko milenge!
