MI's Raghu Sharma to play Impact Player vs CSK in IPL clash

Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya confirmed 33-year-old leg-spinner Raghu Sharma will feature as an Impact Player after handing him his maiden IPL cap in the high-stakes clash against Chennai Super Kings. Struggling in ninth place with just two wins, MI aims to bounce back after a heavy 103-run defeat earlier in the tournament.

Sharma, who has represented Punjab and Puducherry domestically, boasts impressive credentials with 57 first-class wickets and 14 in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Rising from a net bowler to a retained squad member in 2025, the Jalandhar native will look to make an impact off the field as MI opts to bat first. somethingsdifferent.biz
