The five-time Indian Premier League champions Mumbai Indians will open their this season’s campaign against Royal Challengers Bangalore at M Chinnaswamy Stadium on April 2. Mumbai Indians had a forgettable IPL 2022 where they finished at the bottom of points table with just 4 wins in 14 matches. Rohit Sharma-led franchise missed the services of Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya and some other former stars who they failed to retain ahead of IPL 2022 due to retention restrictions.
However, the five-time IPL champions broke the bank in IPL 2023 mini-auction to sign the likes of Cameron Green and Jhye Richardson to strengthen their squad. They signed Green for a whopping 17.5 crore to fill-in the shoes of Kieron Pollard who announced his retirement from IPL.

While the return of Jofra Archer will be a huge boost for the franchise as they signed him in the IPL 2022 Auction despite knowing his unavailability for the last season. The premier English pacer recently made his return to cricket and played in SA20 league and ODI series against South Africa.
Meanwhile, all eyes will be on Jasprit Bumrah’s fitness as he has not played any cricket for a long time as he missed the Asia Cup 2022, T20 World Cup and the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy. He is expected to return to the field in IPL but it will be interesting to track his workload management in the cash-rich league there.
