IPL 2025 latest injury and replacement updates

The South Africa all-rounder who played the Champions Trophy will replace the injured England seamer.
Mumbai Indians name Bosch as injured William's replacement
Williams, who was acquired by MI for INR 75 lakh in this year’s auction, has been ruled out due to a knee injury, which also sidelined him for the SA20 in January.
Nortje, Coetzee could miss IPL 2025
Gerald Coetzee, who was seen as a potential replacement for Anrich Nortje, is also ruled out of the Champions trophy due to fitness issues.
While Coetzee, bought by Gujarat Titans, suffered a hamstring strain, Nortje, picked by KKR for INR 6.50 crore, is on the sidelines due to a back injury.
Lockie Ferguson in doubt after ILT20 injury
A hamstring injury suffered in the ILT20 has put New Zealand pacer Lockie Ferguson in doubt for the Champions Trophy and IPL 2025.
Ferguson was brought by RCB for INR 2 crore in the mega-auction.
Jacob Bethell in doubt for IPL 2025
Talented England all-rounder Jacob Bethell, who was brought by RCB in the latest auction, is in doubt for IPL 2025 after a hamstring injury in the series against India ruled him out of the 2025 Champions Trophy.
England are yet to reveal Bethell’s extent of injury.
Allah Ghazanfar to miss IPL
Mumbai Indians’ spinner Allah Ghazanfar has been ruled out of action for at least four months due to a fracture in the L4 vertebra, leaving him out of the Champions Trophy and IPL 2025.
Injury pushes Mitchell Marsh on the sidelines
Australia all-rounder Mitchell Marsh has been ruled out of the Champions Trophy 2025, less than two weeks before the deadline for sides to confirm their squads.
Marsh is reportedly unlikely to play again this season, and his IPL stint with Lucknow Super Giants is also in doubt.
Injuries force Cummins and Hazlewood out of CT 2025
Australia captain Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood have been both ruled of the Champions Trophy due to injuries. While Cummins is battling an ankle injury, Hazlewood is on the sidelines due to a hip injury.
Both have IPL contracts with Cummins set to lead Sunrisers Hyderabad while Hazlewood is returning to Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
LSG sweat on Marsh’s injury
Australia’s Mitchell Marsh has been ruled out of the upcoming ICC Men's Champion's Trophy with ongoing lower back pain and dysfunction.
The injury is a blow to the hopes of Marsh participating in LSG’s upcoming IPL campaign after the team bought the all-rounder at last November's auction.
Bumrah ruled out of Champions Trophy
Jasprit Bumrah has been ruled out of India’s 2025 Champions Trophy campaign for failing to recover in time from the back injury he sustained during the New Year’s Test in Sydney.
Though there is no confirmation on the timeline of his return, he likely will resume running in a couple of weeks and then gradually get back to bowling.
