Mumbai Indians Release Players For Four Days to Manage Workload

Written by N Krishnamurthy

Mumbai Indians have released all their players for four days to ensure that they relax, spend time with their families and come back fresh for the business end of the 2019 IPL. With the World Cup starting just after the 12th edition of the Indian Premier League, players can manage their workload well and stay fresh with this much needed break.

The franchise made the move keeping in mind the interest of the players and the need to keep them fresh not just for the second half of the IPL, but also for the World Cup.

The management decided to release the players after their game against Rajasthan Royals on April 20 and the players will reunite in Chennai on April 25 before the game against CSK.

“Players are the priority and the only instruction to the boys was that whatever you do, don’t get anywhere near a bat or ball. They should unwind, relax, switch off and focus on enjoying the four-day break,” the source said.
