MI head coach Mahela Jayawardene said the team tried different plans to help Jasprit Bumrah regain form in IPL 2026, saying, "We tried, it didn't work." He added, "The last few games, he was top-notch. He was back again, bowling that 140 km/h mark...and the yorkers were nailing." Bumrah has taken four wickets in 13 games this season.
