Will Jasprit Bumrah Make a Comeback in MI’s Next Match Against KKR?

Mumbai Indians, the five-time IPL champions, are struggling in IPL 2025, losing their first two matches. Star pacer Jasprit Bumrah, known for his lethal death bowling, has missed both games due to injury. A viral video of him bowling in the nets raised fans’ hopes, but reports confirm he is still recovering and will miss the KKR clash. He is expected to return in MI’s fourth match.

After being sidelined due to injury, Jasprit Bumrah’s availability remains a major concern for Mumbai Indians (MI) in IPL 2025. The five-time champions, led by Hardik Pandya, have had a disappointing start, losing both of their opening matches and struggling to earn their first points. As they prepare to face Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at Wankhede Stadium, MI fans are eagerly waiting for an update on Bumrah’s fitness.

Known for his exceptional death bowling and ability to take wickets at crucial moments, Bumrah has been one of MI’s biggest match-winners over the years. His absence has been felt in IPL 2025, as MI’s bowling attack has struggled in key moments. Recently, a video of Bumrah bowling in the nets at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru surfaced on social media, raising hopes of his imminent return. However, reports suggest that the star pacer has not yet fully recovered and will miss the clash against KKR.

If sources are to be believed, Bumrah is expected to return for MI’s fourth match of the season. With MI desperate for a turnaround, his comeback could be a game-changer, adding strength to their bowling lineup and boosting their chances of getting back to winning ways.
