24-year-old Saurashtra wicket-keeper batter, Harvik Desai is all set to join the Mumbai Indians family for IPL 2024. An under-19 World Cup winner, Harvik made his domestic debut across formats in the 2018-19 season, and averages over 30 at a healthy strike-rate of 134.17 in T20s. 

Fun trivia: Harvik scored the winning runs for India in the 2018 under-19 World Cup final.

In what is a bit of unfortunate news, Vishnu Vinod, who impressed everyone with his cameos in the previous season, has been ruled out of the IPL season due to an injury on his left forearm.

Welcome to the Blue and Gold, Harvik! We cannot wait to see you smack them big. Paltan, let’s lay out the red carpet..
