Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], March 23 (ANI): Ahead of his side's highly-anticipated clash against the Gujarat Titans (GT), Mumbai Indians (MI) pacer Jasprit Bumrah threw down some scorching yorkers and bouncers in the nets.
Last year's runners-up, the Gujarat Titans and five-time champions, the Mumbai Indians, will square off against each other in a mouth-watering campaign opening clash on Sunday at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium. The fixture has gained a lot of hype because of star all-rounder Hardik Pandya's move to his former franchise, MI, following two great seasons with GT. Shubman Gill has taken over the captaincy of GT.
This season will be Bumrah's comeback season in the league after he missed the tournament last year due to an injury. In 123 matches, the pacer has 148 wickets and he will be looking to complete 150 IPL wickets.
Taking to Instagram, MI showcased before the world a barrage of bouncers and yorkers by Bumrah that had MI batters searching for answers in nets.
