Will Jacks missed both the games for Mumbai Indians in IPL 2026.
Mumba Indians (MI) will clash with the Rajasthan Royals (RR) on April 7, 2026, in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 tournament. This game is set to be played at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. This will be a tough game for the MI franchise who have played two games and won one and lost one match.
On the other hand, the RR have played two games and won both of them, and are placed second on the IPL 2026 points table.
MI easily chased down a score of more than 200, thrashing Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). As they aim to capture their sixth crown this season, the five-time champions will be pleased with the quality of their openers, particularly Rohit Sharma.
However, the Delhi Capitals (DC) handed them their first IPL 2026 defeat when the Mumbai Indians, led by Suryakumar Yadav, struggled in their opening away match in Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium. Sameer Rizvi, who is in scorching form, scored 90 to help DC easily chase down MI’s 162/4 in 20 overs.
MI also missed the services of Will Jacks for the DC game, and there is a big question whether he’ll be available for the Rajasthan Royals game in Guwahati.

The England all-rounder played a good role for England in the recent T20 World Cup 2026 as he excelled with the bat and ball, with England playing most of their games in Sri Lanka. He did well with the bat, as he supported Jacob Bethell in their unsuccessful attempt to chase down a 250-plus target set by India in the semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2026 in Mumbai.
Will Jacks is yet to arrive in India to join the MI franchise for the IPL 2026 tournament. Jacks had requested an extended break from Mumbai Indians management, which was granted to him. After a lengthy T20 World Cup, Jacks asked the team for more time to spend with his family, according to reports from Cricbuzz.
MI received reinforcements as their first-choice overseas spinner and all-rounder Mitchell Santner joined the franchise before the Delhi Capitals game and participated in that match.
