Boult suffered a groin injury in Qualifier 1 vs DC
Trent Boult gave MI a dream start to IPL 2020 Qualifier 1 by bagging two wickets in just his first over of innings. After teasing DC hitters extensively in his first two overs, the Kiwi pacemaker did not return to bowling after sustaining a groin injury, sending chills down the spine of the Mumbai fans.
In his first spell, Boult finished 2-1-9-2 and was expected to accompany Jasprit Bumrah with the ball in death overs as well, but had to leave the ground in 14th due to injury.
