With the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League begins anytime soon, everyone is getting ready for the most-awaited T20 league at home. Amid this situation, Mumbai Indians all-rounder Jimmy Neesham gave a funny reply to a Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) fan on Twitter who asked him about their chances of winning the maiden IPL title this year.
Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Bangalore will play the campaign opener against Rohit Sharma’s Mumbai Indians on April 9. And, the New Zealand all-rounder Jimmy Neesham will be featured in the Mumbai Indians team this season and he is likely to be featured in the playing XI in the season opener against RCB as well.
However, Neesham is known for his humour and giving witty and savage replies on social media as well and this time too he left no stone unturned as he took a sly dig at it just a day before the season opener against RCB. And, his reply made everyone burst into laughter as well.

His reply soon attracted a lot of people and the Mumbai Indians fans certainly enjoyed his typical reply. They will now look forward to his performance in this year’s IPL for them too. However, last year he didn’t have a good season as he just scored 19 runs and picked up 2 wickets. He is one such player who can turn the table in his favour with both bat and ball, on his day.
While playing for Kings XI Punjab, now Punjab kings, he did not get enough chances to showcase his performances last year, as they had several star overseas players who were picked ahead of him. This season, he will be hoping to put up a good show for Mumbai Indians with both bat and ball.
Mumbai Indians have bought him as a backup player to the West Indian all-rounder Kieron Pollard as the five teams IPL winning team is going to defend their title as well.
