Half of the sixteenth season of the Indian Premier League is over. Almost all the franchises have pumped in big money to buy marquee players for this season. But since the start of the season, the competition has been plagued by injuries.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings team is currently at the top of the points table. But Chennai's most expensive player is still out.

Like Chennai, the position of Mumbai Indians team is also similar. Because the two players for whom the Mumbai franchise spent crores are out due to injuries.

Dhoni's team seems to have lost 30.25 crores. Because Chennai had taken the English all-rounder Ben Stokes in their team for a whopping 16.25 crores.

But after playing two matches, Stokes is sitting on the bench. Stokes, who has been out of the team due to injury, has not been able to perform well in the two matches he has played.

Apart from Ben Stokes, Deepak Chahar's injury has also added to Chennai's headache. Chennai had spent Rs 14 crore on Chahar in the IPL 2022 auction.

Chahar played 3 matches in IPL 2023 and did not take a single wicket. There is also still confusion over his playing. So with Stokes (16.25) and Chahar (14), the Chennai team has lost 30.25 crores.

In fact, Archer was out for the 2022 season due to injury. At that time, Bumrah was in charge of the team's bowling. But Mumbai's dream of Bumrah and Archer playing together remains a dream.

Jasprit Bumrah has been away from cricket for a long time due to injury. While Bumrah is already out of IPL 2023, Archer has played only 2 matches.

Mumbai team is feeling the lack of Bumrah-Archer duo and the team is struggling. 20 crores of the franchise goes down the drain due to the absence of this pair.
