Three-time Indian Premier League champions Mumbai Indians had its first training session of the T20 League at its traditional home venue, the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday.

Earlier this week the team led by Rohit Sharma and coached by Sri Lankan Mahela Jayawardene had started its pre-season training camp at the Reliance Corporate Park in Ghansoli in neighbouring Navi Mumbai.

Mumbai Indians posted a picture of the team’s training session at the Wankhede Stadium on its official Twitter account.

 

A fit-again all-rounder Hardik Pandya, who had missed the T20 and the ODI series against Australia, had joined the MI camp along with his elder brother Krunal in Navi Mumbai.

MI begin its IPL season 12 campaign against Delhi Capitals next Sunday at the Wankhede Stadium, a day after the cash-rich T20 tournament begins at Chennai with defending champion Chennai Super Kings taking on Virat Kohli led Royal Challengers Bangalore at home.
