Star Mumbai Indians cricketers Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah and Ishan Kishan have come out of quarantine and have began their preparations for IPL 2022. The five-time IPL champions will kickstart their campaign against Delhi Capitals on March 27 at the Brabourne Stadium.
The Mumbai franchise shared a clip on their official social media handles in which the players are seen interacting with other members of the squad after coming out of isolation.
On Friday, MI uploaded a video in which Rohit Sharma is seen catching up with new recruit Tim David, while Bumrah is spotted working out on a treadmill. Kishan tried his hand out on the pool table before exchanging a warm hug with Arjun Tendulkar.
They captioned the video as:
“Ro, Boom & Ishan out of quarantine.”
Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah joined the Mumbai Indians squad after completing the two-match Test series against Sri Lanka while Ishan Kishan was part of a camp for white-ball players at the National Cricket Academy.
Rohit and Bumrah were reatined by MI ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 mega auction last month, while Kishan was bought back for a whopping ₹15.25 crore after some intense bidding.
