The Mumbai Indians have made a strategic move to bolster their coaching staff ahead of the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season, announcing the return of Paras Mhambrey as bowling coach. Mhambrey, a familiar face within the MI setup, will be joining forces with the current bowling coach, the legendary Lasith Malinga, creating a formidable duo to guide the team’s bowlers. This announcement comes hot on the heels of the confirmation that Mahela Jayewardene will be returning as head coach, replacing Mark Boucher.
Mhambrey’s previous stint with Mumbai Indians was marked by success, playing a vital role in the team’s victories, including the IPL title wins in 2013, the Champions League T20 triumphs in 2011 and 2013, as well as the runner-up finish in 2010. His contributions extended to two further playoff appearances in the IPL, showcasing his strategic prowess and impact on the team’s performance. Beyond Mumbai Indians, Mhambrey has proven his coaching expertise as the bowling coach of the Indian men’s cricket team, culminating in a memorable T20 World Cup victory earlier this year. This experience will undoubtedly be a valuable asset to the Mumbai Indians, as they gear up for another challenging and exciting IPL season.
With such a strong coaching team in place, the Mumbai Indians will be aiming to reclaim the IPL title and cement their position as one of the most formidable teams in the tournament. The anticipation is high for the upcoming season, with fans eagerly awaiting the exciting battles on the field.
