Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene confirmed on Saturday that star pacer Jasprit Bumrah is fit and available for selection ahead of the team’s IPL 2026 opener against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Wankhede Stadium. There had been some uncertainty about the 32-year-old after reports indicated that he had visited the Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru (CoE), though no injury was officially reported. Speaking at the pre-match press conference, Jayawardene explained that managing player workload is a key challenge for IPL franchises, especially after a packed international schedule. He added that Bumrah has now rejoined the squad and is ready for selection.&nbsp;“Well, obviously the buildup to the World Cup was quite intense," he said. “There was a lot of cricket played, a couple of Test series as well, and leading up to the T20 World Cup, there were a number of bilateral tournaments. The workloads for some of them, most of them are bowlers, meant they needed that extra break. The World Cup itself was high intensity with all the travel and playing. So that’s part and parcel of it. We knew going into this IPL that there would be these kinds of situations. We just have to manage it. As for Bumrah, he’s back with the squad and available to play. That’s it."&nbsp;Also Read - <a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/ipl-2026-rcb-making-start-as-devdutt-padikkal-kohli-make-lightwork-of-srh-in-curtain-raiser-1774718027902">IPL 2026: RCB start on winning note as Devdutt Padikkal, Virat Kohli make lightwork of SRH in curtain-raiser</a>&nbsp;The head coach further explained the challenge of selecting the ideal playing XI and the importance of squad depth.&nbsp;“It is a healthy headache to have so many good options.

The five-time champions Mumbai Indians have not lifted a trophy since 2020 and will be eager to end that drought in the upcoming season.

IPL 2026: Here's all you need to know about MI vs KKR match no 2 timing, squad, H2H & more

It was an evening of mixed fortunes for Mumbai Indians’ batter Ishan Kishan after he was offered a reality-check by Kolkata Knight Riders’ (KKR) Mitchell Starc in the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024) on Friday (May 3). Chasing 170 runs&nbsp;Ishan&nbsp;did make a good start but was quickly brought down to earth&nbsp;having&nbsp;scored a six off Starc’s bowling. His wicket at the Wankhede Stadium saw the crowd go silent as the home side’s desperation for a win continued.&nbsp;

<h2>Ishan gets reality-check</h2>

Coming out to bat to chase 170, Ishan took the attack to Starc and hit a six on the leg side on the third ball of the second over.&nbsp;While this made the crowd&nbsp;ecstatic, it was the next delivery that&nbsp;brought everyone back to square one.&nbsp;In desperation for another six, Starc’s delivery caught Ishan by surprise as he failed to judge the flight and&nbsp;was bowled out&nbsp;on 13 off 7. The wicket in the second over was enough for the crowd to go silent&nbsp;with&nbsp;them having little joy throughout the season.&nbsp;

After the wicket, Mumbai never recovered and slumped to their latest defeat in the IPL 2024. Suryakumar&nbsp; Yadav did resist with a 56 off 34&nbsp;balls,&nbsp;but could not avoid his side’s eighth defeat of the season. Tim David scored 24 off 20 but did not get a good helping hand as the hosts suffered their first defeat to KKR on home ground in 12 years. The 24-run win for KKR also helped them&nbsp;stay firm in second place in the IPL 2024 standings.&nbsp;

IPL 2024: Mitchell Starc silences Wankhede crowd with inch-perfect delivery to dismiss Ishan Kishan

MI vs KKR Head to Head: The 22nd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) will be played between Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders (MI vs KKR) on Sunday, April 16. The venue of the match is Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium. KKR has won 2 matches out of the 4 matches they have played so far. On the other hand, Mumbai Indians have just won 1 match out of 3 matches. Both teams will look forward to adding 2 points to their points tally after defeating their rival in today’s contest. Let’s first look at the head-to-head record of both teams.

<h2>MI vs KKR head-to-head record</h2>

The head-to-head record between Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL games is 22-9 in Mumbai Indians' favour. MI has dominated KKR throughout the 15 years of IPL. The Knight Riders have, however, recently made some progress in terms of their record.

In IPL 2022, KKR defeated MI twice. In fact, the Kolkata-based team is now unbeaten in three games against the Rohit Sharma-led side.

Fans must note that the match will take place at Mumbai’s Wankhede stadium, MI’s home ground. Here, KKR will find it very difficult to overcome the Indians. Of the last 8 matches played here between KKR and MI, the latter have emerged victorious 7 times, whereas KKR has managed to win just 1 time.

<h2>MI vs KKR Wankhede pitch report</h2>

Batters benefit from the batting-friendly surface at Wankhede throughout the entire game. Short boundaries and a quick outfield help teams post high scores. Bowlers will surely have a tough time keeping their economy low. The pacers will get some help as the game progresses, though. On this ground, the team that wins the toss will probably choose to bowl first.

<h2>MI vs KKR playing XI</h2>

Mumbai Indians: Rohit Sharma©, Ishan Kishan(wk), Cameron Green, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Nehal Wadhera, Hrithik Shokeen, Arshad Khan, Piyush Chawla, Jason Behrendorff, Riley Meredith, Tim David

MI vs KKR playing XI: Mumbai Indians vs Kolkata Knight Riders match preview and prediction

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) kept their playoffs hopes alive with a comfortable 52-run win over Mumbai Indians (MI) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Monday (May 09). It was a brilliant all-round performance from the Shreyas Iyer-led side as they went on to successfully defend the total of 165 runs to bag their fifth win of the season and moved to the seventh spot on the points table.

While there were a number of talking points from the game with the likes of Jasprit Bumrah, Pat Cummins and Rinku Singh impressing for their respective teams, Iyer's startling revelation post the conclusion of the game took many by surprise. Following his side's victory, the KKR skipper was asked why KKR have been chopping and changing too much and don't yet have a settled playing XI this season.

On Monday, KKR had made as many as five changes in their playing XI against Mumbai Indians as the likes of openers Venkatesh Iyer and Ajinkya Rahane along with Cummins returned to the team. KKR's unstable combination has been one of the major reasons behind their inconsistent run this season as they lie in the bottom half of the points table in IPL 2022.

While many would expect the decisions pertaining to the frequent changes in the team are being taken by the captain and the coaches, that has not been the case at KKR. Iyer revealed franchise's CEO Venky Mysore has also been involved in team selections, an admission that left many in shock.

“It’s really difficult. I was also in that position once when I started playing IPl," Iyer said at the post-match presentation on Monday when asked how difficult was it to inform the players that they are not playing on a particular day. He then went on to reveal how KKR CEO is also involved in the selection process along with him and head coach Brendon McCullum.

"We discuss with the coaches, obviously CEO (Venky Mysore) is also involved in team selection. Especially, Baz (Brendon McCullum) goes to the players and tells them if they are not playing. All of them are very supportive of the decision-making. The way they turn up to the ground, support each and every individual in the playing eleven, it’s something to be proud of as a captain. I am really happy that we came today with good spirits and played with all the energy," said Iyer.

Iyer's comments left many in shock on Twitter as fans lashed out at the KKR team management. While CEOs are integral members of any franchise, the cricketing decisions are left to the captain, players and the coaching staff in the majority of teams.

KKR have so far managed five wins in eleven matches this season and have an outside chance of qualifying for the playoffs if they can win their remaining three matches in a row and maintain a good net run rate.

Jasprit Bumrah bowls triple wicket-maiden over against KKR, bags fifer to record his best-ever figures in IPL

Mumbai Indians (MI) captain Rohit Sharma's disappointing run with the bat continued in his side's clash against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in IPL 2022 on Monday (May 09). Rohit was dismissed cheaply yet again as he was sent back on 2 after a controversial dismissal against KKR pacer Time Southee at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai.

Rohit was dismissed on the last ball of the first over of the Mumbai Indians' innings. Southee bowled a short of length delivery to Rohit cramping him for room. The ball had hit Rohit's thigh pad before KKR wicket-keeper Sheldon Jackon took the catch. However, Jackson was convinced Rohit had edged the ball and asked KKR skipper Shreyas Iyer to go for a review after Rohit was deemed not out by the on-field umpire.

The replays showed there was an edge when the ball passed the bat. However, there was a clear technical glitch in the ultra edge as spikes were witnessed in the replay even before the ball passed close to the bat. Nonetheless, the third umpire was quick to make his decision and adjudged Rohit out.

Rohit was left dejected in the middle as he couldn't believe what had unfolded. The Mumbai Indians skipper was sure he had not edged the ball but he was deemed out and had to leave the ground. The controversial dismissal soon sparked massive outrage on social media as fans slammed the 3rd umpire for the decision.

Fans slam 3rd umpire as ultra edge glitch leads to Rohit Sharma's controversial dismissal against KKR

Mumbai Indians (MI) became the first team to be knocked out of the race for playoffs in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 last week after Rajasthan Royals defeated Punjab Kings. MI have managed only two wins in ten matches in what has been a disastrous campaign for them in IPL 2022.&nbsp;

The five-time champions went on a record-breaking losing streak of 8 matches at the start of the season before winning their last two games in a row to regain some lost momentum. While the Rohit Sharma-led side will now be playing for pride, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have everything to play for as they desperately aim to keep their playoffs hopes alive.

Mumbai Indians will lock horns with Kolkata Knight Riders at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai on Monday (May 09). It is a must-win game for KKR, who are just one spot above Mumbai Indians on the points table with 8 points from eleven matches so far this season. KKR will be hoping MI don't spoil their party after bowing out of the tournament.

Mumbai Indians vs Kolkata Knight Riders, IPL 2022: Head-to-head, stats, trivia and predicted playing XIs

Mumbai Indians (MI) have had a woeful start to their campaign in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 as they are yet to get off the mark in the tournament after back-to-back defeats in their first two games this season. Mumbai Indians lost to Delhi Capitals by 4 wickets in their opening game before Jos Buttler's sensational hundred helped Rajasthan Royals thrash them in their last outing.

Mumbai Indians' bowling owes have been left exposed this season as ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah is failing to find support from the other end. While Bumrah was excellent with a three-wicket haul while conceding only 17 runs against RR, none of the other MI pacers could make an impact.

Murugan Ashwin has played as the lone spinner in the team so far but has failed to impress as MI have struggled to pick wickets in the middle overs. Rohit Sharma &amp; Co. will hope for a batter show from the bowlers when they lock horns with Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in their third game of the season at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Wednesday.

Against a KKR batting line-up consisting of the likes of Shreyas Iyer, Nitish Rana, Venkatesh Iyer and Andre Russell who can take down any bowling attack on their day, MI bowlers will have to step up and deliver as an off day from them can prove costly for the team's chances.

Kolkata Kight Riders have won two out of their first three games this season and have appeared as a confident unit under new skipper Shreyas Iyer. KKR's middle-order remains a concern for the franchise and skipper Iyer will have to control his urge to big against spinners to ensure he can stay in the middle for longer and anchor the innings for his side.

With Umesh Yadav in fine form, KKR have been excellent with the new ball during the powerplay but there remain concerns in death overs. Andre Russell's fitness will be key as the all-rounder's contributions with the ball are vital for KKR's chances. While KKR will be looking to continue the winning momentum, MI will hope to get their first win in the bag on Wednesday.

KKR vs MI, IPL 2022 prediction:

Mumbai Indians are used to facing the early jitters in a new season but Rohit's men have a lot to work upon and improve as the season progresses. KKR will be high on confidence after comprehensive win over Punjab Kings in their last game and are likely to continue their winning momentum at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Wednesday.

KKR vs MI, IPL 2022 prediction today: Who will win Kolkata Knight Riders vs Mumbai Indians match?

Defending champions Mumbai Indians might have lost their previous game against Chennai Super Kings, but skipper Rohit Sharma feels it`s important for the team to turn up and do the job when they take on Kolkata Knight Riders in their Indian Premier League (IPL) encounter at Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Thursday. "It`s important that we turn up and do the job!" Rohit said in a video posted on MI`s twitter handle. "I honestly don`t believe in past records, T20 is a game on that particular day. What happens it`s a game of that you have to be best on that day. They are a good opposition (Kolkata Knight Riders) and they play cricket very well as a team, and they will obviously be coming off from some confidence after their last win so it`s not going to be cakewalk for us.

"I know that we had a very handy record against them, but it`s important that we turn up really well on that particular day, and do the job. When you are chasing a score like 157 you need to build those small partnerships, and make sure you keep yourself in the game as long as possible." Commenting on the impressive show by pacer Adam Milne in his first game, the captain said: "Adam Milne, especially is coming from a very good tournament in UK. He is a good bowler, bowls really fast and it`s all about, you know, getting that confidence and he got that confidence in the first game. So I just hope that he builds on it. We just have to come back and come back really strong and tick those small boxes, and I think if you look at the potential in this squad. We have got all bases covered."

Rohit missed the opening game as the team management felt it was important to give him some more recovery time after he injured himself during the Test series in England. MI couldn`t capitalise on the good start they got against CSK and ultimately lost the game by 20 runs as MS Dhoni`s boys made a remarkable comeback after a poor start.

IPL 2021: It's important that we turn up and do the job, says MI skipper Rohit Sharma ahead of KKR tie

Mumbai Indians take on Kolkata Knight Riders on Friday at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi as the action in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 continues. So far in IPL history, the matches between KKR and MI have been the most one-sided ones and the Rohit Sharma-led outfit would be looking to continue their run against the Knight Riders.

However, KKR would be hoping for a fresh start under the captaincy of Eoin Morgan after Dinesh Karthik on Friday handed over the captaincy duties to the World Cup-winning English captain. In the previous encounter between MI and KKR, Mumbai Indians came victorious.&nbsp;

MI boast the maximum winning percentage against KKR (76.92%) and would be eager to continue their domination with two more points on Friday.&nbsp;

Rohit Sharma has the most runs when it comes to matches between MI and KKR with 904 runs under his belt and needs 96 runs to complete 1,000 runs against the Knights. Most wickets in KKR vs MI encounters go to Sunil Narine with 22 scalps but with his contentious action, it won’t be a surprise if he misses another match in IPL 2020.
