Mumbai Indians, the five-time IPL champions, have announced the signing of key international players to boost their squad as they approach the playoff stages.

The team has recruited England's Jonny Bairstow, Richard Gleeson, and Sri Lanka's Charith Asalanka as replacements for their foreign recruits who are obligated to national duties.
