New Delhi, May 16
Mumbai Indians received a significant boost ahead of the IPL 2025 resumption, with England’s Will Jacks confirming his availability through an Instagram post that showed him on a flight back to India.
Jacks shared a special post, featuring his boarding pass, accompanied with an Indian tricolour emoji along with a back arrow.
A consistent presence in MI’s campaign, Jacks featured in 11 of their first 12 matches, contributing 195 runs across nine innings and chipping in with five wickets through his off-spin. His impact has been notable, having earned Player-of-the-Match honours in crucial home wins against Sunrisers Hyderabad and Lucknow Super Giants, underlining his value as a dependable all-rounder in the side.
Though Jacks has returned to India ahead of MI's last two group-stage games but his availability for the final stages of the season is in doubt due to international duty as he has been named in England's limited-overs set-up for the West Indies series, clashing with the rearranged knockout stage.
