In a huge relief to the Mumbai Indians, Rohit Sharma had a long batting session in the nets at the Narendra Modi Stadium, with bowling coach Paras Mhambrey declaring that he is ‘fit’. However, a call on his availability for Monday’s crucial IPL 2026 fixture against Gujarat Titans will be taken only on the match day.

It has been a forgettable campaign for the five-time champion so far, with just a solitary win in five games, and as the team takes on a high-flying Titans outfit on a black-soil surface, the focus will firmly be on getting its campaign back on track.
