Not only, Mumbai CSK is also mulling over the injury of their premium all-rounder Ben Stokes as he is also a doubtful starter for this match.
After Jasprit Bumrah’s injury in IPL 2023, Mumbai Indians hope relies on on England fast bowler Jofra Archer. But Joffra Archer got injured before the match played against Chennai Super Kings. Former cricketer S Badrinath has told on his YouTube channel that a ball hit Jofra Archer’s elbow during the net session, so he may be ruled out of the upcoming match.
At the same time, according to the report, Ben Stokes suffered heel pain after the practice session at the Wankhede Stadium on Friday. He has been advised to rest for 10 days in such a situation.

Mumbai Indians are still waiting for their first win in IPL 2023. Mumbai had to face defeat in the first match of the season and will hope to improve their bowling performance. Whereas CSK has opened their winning account of this season by defeating LSG in their 2nd encounter, they will also be worried about their weak bowling.
