The Mumbai Indians have made a strategic move

Mumbai Indians sign T20 World Cup winner for remainder of IPL 2023

The Mumbai Indians have made a strategic move to address their bowling woes by signing England pacer Chris Jordan as a replacement player for the remainder of the 2023 Indian Premier League (IPL) season. 

Jordan, who played a key role in England's 2022 T20 World Cup team, has joined the Mumbai Indians (MI) for the rest of the season, according to a report by EspnCricinfo. While it is not yet clear who Jordan has replaced, an overseas player is likely to make way for him.

MI has been struggling with injuries to pacers Jhye Richardson and Jasprit Bumrah, who were ruled out of the season before the tournament began. Star English pacer Jofra Archer has played just two games out of the seven so far, and it has emerged that he was forced to travel to Belgium during the tournament for a procedure on his troubled elbow. Jordan's arrival is expected to provide much-needed relief to the team's bowling department, which has conceded 96 and 77 runs in their last two games against Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Gujarat Titans (GT), respectively.
