He was acquired by MI as an injury replacement.
Mumbai Indians (MI) replacement signing Corbin Bosch has been handed a fine and one-year ban by the Pakistan Super League (PSL). This is because Bosch was picked by Peshawar Zalmi for the PSL 2025 season but he opted out after getting picked by the IPL heavyweights as a replacement for the injured Lizaad Williams.
For the unversed, Corbin Bosch shares a Mumbai connection apart from Mumbai Indians as he plays for their SA20 franchise – MI Cape Town. MI Cape Town clinched the title in the league’s third season earlier this year, with Bosch contributing 11 wickets, placing him 10th among the top wicket-takers.
On the other hand, he is yet to make his official IPL 2025 debut but has already made an impact as a substitute fielder by taking a crucial catch to dismiss Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) skipper Rishabh Pant.
