Jasprit Bumrah Fit for MI’s IPL 2026 Opener Against KKR

Mumbai Indians will take on Kolkata Knight Riders in their IPL 2026 opener at Wankhede Stadium on Sunday, with a major boost as Jasprit Bumrah has been declared fit. Head coach Mahela Jayawardene confirmed that the pacer has fully recovered and is ready to lead the bowling attack. Bumrah joined the squad on Friday and trained without any issues, putting to rest earlier injury concerns.

However, Mumbai Indians will be without Mitchell Santner and Will Jacks for the opening match, as both players are unavailable due to personal reasons. Their absence slightly affects the team’s overseas balance ahead of the contest.

Captain Hardik Pandya is set to lead the side, alongside key players Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav, as the team prepares for the 7:30 PM IST clash.
