Ryan Rickelton came in place of fellow South African wicketkeeper-batter Quinton de Kock, while Robin Minz also donned the MI jersey for the game. What that meant was that senior pro Rohit Sharma missed out on yet another game for Mumbai.

The former India skipper is still recovering from a hamstring injury he sustained while playing an IPL 2026 match versus Royal Challengers Bengaluru on April 12. Although he has been training for several days, the team management feels he is not yet match-fit for competitive action.

MI captain Hardik Pandya stated at the toss that Rohit will take a few more days to regain his fitness. "Rohit will need a couple more games, he's trying, but it's not up to the mark," he said.
