IPL 2026 | Niggle behind slump? Mahela Jayawardene opens up on Jasprit Bumrah's struggling form
Star pacer Jasprit Bumrah is enduring a rare wicketless streak in IPL 2026, going five matches without success.
Despite this, coach Mahela Jayawardene backs his bowler, citing a minor World Cup niggle and a need for luck.
The Mumbai Indians bowling unit, however, admits to lacking penetration this season, contributing to their current ninth-place standing.
