Mumbai Indians have roped in Sandeep Warrier, a seasoned right-arm fast bowler, as a substitute player for Jasprit Bumrah.

With more than 200 matches under his belt in the domestic circuit, including 69 T20 games, Sandeep has taken a total of 362 wickets across formats in his career so far. He made his debut for India in 2021, showcasing his skills and ability to perform at the highest level. Sandeep will join the Mumbai Indians squad before their opening match of the IPL 2023 season against Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Mumbai Indians suffered a major setback as Jasprit Bumrah was ruled out of the IPL 2023 due to a back issue. Bumrah had undergone back surgery in New Zealand and would need four to five months to recover. The right-arm pacer last played for Team India in September 2022.

Bumrah had been named in India’s T20 World Cup squad but had to be withdrawn due to the injury. He was then included in the ODI squad for the series against Sri Lanka but was again ruled out of action.
