After spending time at home during several months of lockdown, Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma and all-rounder Hardik Pandya have already started their preparations for the cash-rich league.
Mumbai Indians are the most successful team in IPL history with four titles to their name, all coming under the leadership of Rohit Sharma. Last year, they defeated Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by just one run to win their record fourth title.
Bumrah is part of Mumbai Indians' core group of players and has been leading their fast bowling attack for several years now.
He played 16 matches for the franchise last year and picked up 19 wickets, with an economy of 6.63 runs per over. In fact, he has picked 15 or more wickets in each of the last four seasons, which makes him one of the most consistent performers for his side.
