It has been quite a dismal IPL 2026 season for Jasprit Bumrah so far. The Mumbai Indians pace spearhead has not only gone wicketless in all five games, but he also conceded runs at 10.25 per over in the previous outing against Punjab Kings, raising concerns.

However, Mumbai Indians bowling coach Paras Mhambrey backed the under-fire fast bowler, calling him a ‘fighter’. “I don’t think it’s a challenging situation. Booms is a fighter. He is fighting his way through. Everything can’t be related to just the wickets,” Mhambrey said.

“He bowls at different stages of the game. Many a times, he comes in at different roles for us, in terms of finishing the Powerplays. For me, the most important bit is how he turns up for practice every session,” he added.

“At the nets yesterday, he came in with the same intensity, did the stuff that is expected out of him. I have no doubt about him. I’m sure others in the team as well – the captain, the coach and all the management – have no doubt in terms of his performance, and all that effort will translate into wickets in future games,” the bowling coach said.

In the tournament so far, Bumrah has conceded 164 runs in five matches without a wicket, an unusual stretch for a bowler of his calibre. The last time he endured a similar phase was back in 2014, when he went four matches without a breakthrough.

Meanwhile, Will Jacks is yet to join the team.
