Mumbai Indians, who have won the title five times in the IPL, have included England all-rounder Chris Jordan in their team. Jordan will join the team as a replacement player. Jordan was not bought by any team in the IPL auction this time. As the current season of IPL has reached its second phase, Jordan’s fate is open. He has got a chance to join a big team like Mumbai.
Right now the franchise has not told which player he has been selected as a replacement. Jordan has previously played for four IPL franchises. He was in the team of Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in 2016. After that he was with Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2017-18. Punjab Kings kept Jordan with them in 2020-21. At the same time, he was in the four-time champion Chennai Super Kings in 2022.
