In a recent update, Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene disclosed that Rohit Sharma sustained a knee injury during a training session, which prevented him from participating in the LSG clash. Despite attempting a fitness test, Rohit was unable to bear weight on his knee, causing discomfort that led to his exclusion from the match. As a result, Will Jacks replaced him as the opening partner for Ryan Rickelton, but the duo failed to deliver. Jayawardene mentioned that they are awaiting positive news on Rohit’s recovery in the coming days. Additionally, Rohit, who was retained by MI as an Impact Player, has struggled in the IPL season so far. Jayawardene clarified that the decision to use Rohit as an impact player was tactical and entirely up to the team management.
