During the IPL 2025 mega auction, Mumbai Indians did a great job of recruiting the players as per their demands. Although the fans might look at the squad and find a few weak spots, overall, it looks balanced. With Jasprit Bumrah in their side, they have one of the best death-bowling units in the league.
So, let us take a deeper look at the MI Squad for IPL 2025 and try to analyse what could be their death over bowling combination in the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League.

Who Will Open The Bowling For MI In IPL 2025?
Mumbai Indians have two new ball specialists on their side. Deepak Chahar and Trent Boult will start the proceedings for the MI. While it is expected that Boult will mostly get a couple of overs, they will look to use three overs of Chahar in the powerplay. The remaining one may be from Hardik Pandya himself or Jasprit Bumrah.
Who Will Bowl The Death Overs For MI In IPL 2025?
Players | Overs | Wicket | Economy |
---|---|---|---|
Trent Boult | 172.2 | 78 | 10.28 |

Hardik Pandya | 44.4 | 27 | 11.33 |

Jasprit Bumrah is their specialist in the final five overs, and he will definitely bowl two of them. Alongside Bumrah, Trent Boult might also get a couple of overs, and Hardik Pandya himself bowls a single over. They might also go the other way around, where they use most of Boult’s overs in the powerplay and use him for a single over in the death with Hardik Pandya bowling two.
