Hardik Pandya Returns After Viral Battle

Hardik Pandya missed Mumbai Indians' clash against Delhi Daredevils due to viral illness but is expected to return for the five-time champions' away match against Rajasthan Royals in Guwahati on Tuesday. The all-rounder traveled with the team after the Delhi game and will resume training after precautionary rest.

MI lost to Delhi Capitals by six wickets after stand-in captain Suryakumar Yadav revealed Pandya was unwell. The situation wasn't serious, with the management resting him as a precaution. Rajasthan Royals, currently topping the table, will be MI's next opponent.
