Ashwin's MI XI: Boult benched, KKR clash awaits!

Ravichandran Ashwin has stirred the pot by leaving out Trent Boult from his Mumbai Indians' IPL 2026 playing XI! Instead, he’s gone with Deepak Chahar and Afghanistan's Allah Ghazanfar for the opening match against Kolkata Knight Riders on March 29. Ashwin explained he needs Ghazanfar for the new ball, saying, "Boult had to sit this one out!"
