Lasith Malinga's lookalike has joined the Mumbai Indians for IPL 2024

Mumbai Indians players are enjoying themselves ahead of the Indian Premier League 2024. Hardik Pandya is in the spotlight after being appointed as captain of the five-time champions. On Friday, Ishan Kishan joined in by impersonating their bowling coach Lasith Malinga.

In a video shared by the franchise, Ishan was seen wearing a coloured wig to resemble the former MI player. The renowned bowler did not appreciate Ishan's imitation of him, but he eventually joined in the fun and smiled while looking at the left-handed player.

After training with captain Hardik in Baroda, Ishan Kishan has joined the Mumbai Indians' pre-season camp. Since leaving the tour of South Africa midway through, he has been away from cricket.

After refusing to play for Jharkhand in the Ranji Trophy, Kishan was not offered a central contract.

Lasith Malinga has returned to Mumbai Indians after spending two seasons as bowling coach for Rajasthan Royals. For the new season, MI has acquired two Sri Lankan bowlers, Nuwan Thushara and Dilshan Madushanka.

Mumbai Indians' first game will be against Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium on March 24.
