Mumbai Indians rested their premier pacer Jasprit Bumrah for the game against Lucknow Super Giants at Wankhede Stadium. This paved the way for Arjun Tendulkar’s inclusion in the side, marking his first appearance for MI in IPL 2024. Mumbai Indians won the toss and opted to bowl first against LSG.
Jasprit Bumrah benched for MI vs LSG clash
With MI out of IPL 2024 and the T20 World Cup fast approaching, the decision to bench Bumrah is logical, given that he has played all games for MI so far. Meanwhile, Arjun Tendulkar has been warming the bench throughout IPL 2024 and finally gets a chance in MI’s final game.

Ishan Kishan (w), Naman Dhir, Suryakumar Yadav, Dewald Brevis, Hardik Pandya (c), Nehal Wadhera, Romario Shepherd, Anshul Kamboj, Piyush Chawla, Arjun Tendulkar, Nuwan Thushara
