The Mumbai Indians will receive a boost with the return of Jasprit Bumrah for their upcoming IPL 2025 match against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Wankhede Stadium. Bumrah had been sidelined since sustaining a back injury during India’s Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test in Sydney earlier this year.
The 31-year-old missed out on participating in the Champions Trophy 2025 and the initial games of the IPL season due to his injury. However, he is set to make his season debut against RCB, providing a much-needed reinforcement to the Mumbai Indians’ bowling attack.
In his previous encounters against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Bumrah has showcased his prowess with 29 wickets in 19 matches. He has conceded 552 runs in 74 overs with an impressive average of 19.03 and an economy rate of 7.45. Bumrah’s best performance against RCB came in 2024 at the Wankhede Stadium, where he took 5 wickets for 21 runs.
With Bumrah’s return, Mumbai Indians will be looking to strengthen their position in the IPL 2025 and secure a victory against their opponents. His presence on the field is sure to add depth and skill to the team’s bowling department, making them a formidable force to reckon with in the tournament.
