Sanjay Manjrekar on MI’s struggles: Teams can go easy on Bumrah because they can easily target other bowlers
✦ AI Brief
Mumbai Indians' struggles in IPL 2026 have drawn attention to Jasprit Bumrah's performance. He has been wicketless with an economy rate of 8.63, his highest since 2016. Sanjay Manjrekar suggests that Bumrah's performance is not a decline, but rather a result of teams choosing not to take risks against him, conserving energy and targeting other bowlers in the Mumbai Indians' attack.
