Mumbai Indians opener Lendl Simmons played the season opener against the Rising Pune Supergiants but had to bow out after that. It was a back injury that ruled him out of IPL 2016. Interestingly, earlier, he wasn’t a part of the West Indies squad for the World T20 due to the same injury but had later recovered. Clearly, the Mumbai Indians will miss his services since he was the best batsman for Mumbai during their title run in IPL 2015, scoring 540 runs in 13 matches at a strike-rate of 122.41 with six half-centuries. MI roped in Kiwi opener Martin Guptill as his replacement.
