Mumbai Indians on Tuesday began their preparations for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 campaign.
Earlier, captain Rohit Sharma accompanied by speedster Jasprit Bumrah moved from the bubble to join the squad late last night, while Ishan Kishan flew from Bengaluru separately after securing a full-fitness certificate from BCCI’s NCA.
The 12-day strength and conditioning pre-season camp, ahead of Mumbai Indians’ first match, is being held at their in-house training facility at the Reliance Jio Stadium, Navi Mumbai.
Mumbai Indians will also play a couple of inter-squad practice matches towards the second week of the camp.
