NEW DELHI: Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene has provided an update on Jasprit Bumrah’s recovery, stating that the star pacer is still recuperating from his back injury at the BCCI Centre of Excellence.
“Everyone is available except for Bumrah. Like I said in my last interview as well, it’s on a daily basis that he’s going through his programme,” Jayawardene told the media on the eve of MI’s match against Gujarat Titans on Saturday.

He emphasised that while Bumrah’s recovery is progressing well, there is no specific timeline for his return. “So far, everything seems okay. But there were no timelines given by NCA, so we’ll wait on that,” he added.
Jayawardene also addressed the high-scoring trend in IPL 2025 but remained confident in MI’s experienced bowling attack.
“We’ve got a very experienced bowling attack, and they don’t think like that. Each venue and opposition presents different challenges, and that’s something we will focus on,” he explained.
Additionally, Jayawardene confirmed that Arjun Tendulkar, who was recovering from a brief illness, will be considered for selection if required.
