Jasprit Bumrah in CSK Playing XI? Broadcaster Goof-up Shows Injured Mumbai Indians Pacer in Chennai Super Kings Lineup at the Start of MI vs CSK IPL 2023 Match
In a big goof-up by the broadcaster, Mumbai Indians pacer Jasprit Bumrah was shown in the Chennai Super Kings playing XI after the toss in MI vs CSK IPL 2023 match. Fans on Twitter were very quick to spot this mistake and the incident initiated a lot of hilarious reactions.
In the latest edition of IPL's El Clasico, Chennai Super Kings registered a clinical Seven-wicket victory over Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. Put into bat first Mumbai got a brilliant start, courtesy of their openers Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan. However, as soon as CSK managed to get rid of the MI openers, the game took a huge turn. Chennai spinners Mitchell Santner and Ravindra Jadeja showed their class and dominated the middle phase. Although a late flurry from Tim David helped MI to post a total of 157 in 20 overs, it was clearly below par on this track. In reply, CSK lost Devon Conway in the 1st over. Just when it seemed like there was an opportunity for MI to make comeback into this game, Ajinkya Rahane smashed the quickest half-century of IPL 2023 and helped CSK to get two valuable points.

Now interestingly a rather hilarious incident took place at the start of this match. Following the toss that CSK captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni won, the broadcaster made a big goof-up. With Moeen Ali and Ben Stokes unavailable, CSK handed South African pacer Sisanda Magala his IPL debut. The broadcasters however put Mumbai Indians pacer Jasprit Bumrah's image in Magala's place while showing the lineups.
Fans on Twitter were very quick to spot this mistake from the broadcaster as the picture of this moment went viral within minutes. Here are a few reactions from the fans.

Meanwhile, it was the second successive crushing defeat for Mumbai. Rohit Sharma's side is struggling with a lot of issues. One of the biggest reasons for MI's recent failures has been the unavailability of their star pacer Jasprit Bumrah. The Indian bowler has been ruled out from IPL 2023 due to an injury.
