CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Mumbai Indians (MI) have announced the signing of leg-spinner Raghu Sharma as a replacement for the injured Vignesh Puthur ahead of their upcoming IPL 2025 fixtures. This move comes after Puthur sustained a shoulder injury that has ruled him out for the remainder of the season. Raghu Sharma, a promising domestic talent, has been making waves in the Indian domestic circuit with his ability to turn the ball sharply and pick up key wickets in the middle overs.

With Sharma eager to prove himself on the big stage, fans can expect exciting spells in the upcoming matches. The MI camp remains optimistic as they adapt to the challenges posed by injuries mid-season. Stay tuned for updates on Sharma’s potential debut and team combinations in the next matches.
