IPL 2025: Mumbai Indians are missing their star bowler Jaspreet Bumrah in the present season of IPL. He has missed the first week due to injury, and fans are eagerly waiting for his return. Meanwhile, a major update has emerged on Bumrah’s fitness.
Bumrah’s return will take more time
According to media reports, BCCI’s medical team is paying special attention to Bumrah’s fitness. In fact, after IPL, India has to play an important series of five Test matches against England in June. The BCCI does not want Bumrah’s injury to become more serious, so there is no hurry in his return.
A BCCI source said, “Bumrah’s injury is a bit more serious. The medical team wants to ensure that they do not have a stress fracture. He is bowling in the Center of Excellence, but will take time to get perfectly fit. At the moment, there is no fixed deadline for his return, but expected he can return to the field by mid -April.”
Akash Deep also delay in return
Apart from Bumrah, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) fast bowler Akash Deep may also take some time. According to reports, he can fit by 10 April. LSG’s bowling attack is considered inexperienced at this time, so the team is waiting for their return.

In the absence of Bumrah, Mumbai Indians seems to be struggling. The team has played three matches so far, but has been able to register only one win. Now Mumbai’s next match will be against Lucknow Super Giants on 4 April. It will be interesting to see how Mumbai’s bowling attack performs in the absence of Bumrah.
