IPL 2025: Mumbai Indians should follow Gautam Gambhir's footsteps to win IPL 2025

Mumbai Indians IPL 2025: Winning a trophy without Jasprit Bumrah is difficult, not impossible, as Team India has proved. Mumbai Indians bowling department, lacking right rhythm, can take a lesson from the Champions Trophy 2025-winning Team India, coached by Gautam Gambhir and led by skipper Rohit Sharma.

In this prestigious ICC event, the Men in Blue Brigade, deprived of the service of Jasprit Bumrah, managed to rope in a bunch of bowlers, who performed as a unit. The credit for conquering the CT 2025 should go to Gautam Gambhir and the management. Team India mostly relies on Mohammed Shami (veteran pacer), Hardik Pandya (all-rounder), Varun Chakravarthy (spinner and the x-factor), Kuldeep Yadav (experienced spinner), Axar Patel (spinner and all-rounder), Ravindra Jadeja (spinner and all-rounder), and Harshit Rana (pacer) during the Champions Trophy 2025—an all-rounder-heavy bowling combination.

Mumbai Indians also can try this method to defeat the Kolkata Knight Riders and to regain their glory. Mumbai Indians have all the elements in their squad they need to build a solid foundation without Bumrah. Trent Boult and experienced pacer bowler Deepak Chahar, underrated all-rounder Mitchell Santner, experienced spinner, and Vignesh Puthur can play as an x-factor for this season and the skipper and all-rounder Hardik Pandya—these 5 can play key roles as long as Bumrah remains out of the field. The only thing Pandya can do is pick up the right bowlers at the right moment.
