This will be Behrendorff's second stint with five time IPL champions Mumbai Indians (MI). He was part of the 2021 IPL winning Chennai Super Kings squad. On the other hand, Chennai Super Kings are set to release two players from their squad and will retain all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, as per reports.
