Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah is available for selection for Mumbai Indians' match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, happening at the Wankhede Stadium on Monday, confirmed head coach Mahela Jayawardene.
"He's available, he's training today, and should be available (for RCB game). He arrived last night, he had his sessions with NCA (now called as CoE), and he's been handed over to our physios. He's bowling today (in the practice session), so all good," said Jayawardene in the pre-match press conference on Sunday.
Bumrah had been out of action since suffering a back injury on day two of the fifth Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground. The injury needed rehab at the CoE meant Bumrah missed out on India’s victorious 2025 Champions Trophy campaign.
