With no Lasith Malinga, the responsibility to spearhead Mumbai Indians' bowling heavily lies on Jasprit Bumrah. The king of death overs, Bumrah failed to get his deliveries on the spot during the IPL-13 opener against Chennai Super Kings on Saturday as defending champions Mumbai Indians failed to defend 162-9 in Abu Dhabi.

Bumrah was the most expensive MI bowler in the opening game, leaking 43 runs and claiming just one wicket in his four overs. Ambati Rayudu, who top-scored with 71 for CSK, made a mockery of Bumrah by often stepping out to whack one of the world's most feared bowlers.

Since his return after suffering a lower back stress fracture sustained last year, Bumrah has not looked at his best. In his first international match upon his return, a T20I in January against Sri Lanka at Indore, he looked rusty. He then went wicketless in the three ODI series in New Zealand.
