Romario Shepherd, the West Indian all-rounder, has found himself back with the Mumbai Indians (MI) for the 2024 IPL season. Here's a breakdown of his IPL journey, clarifying the earlier confusion:

• Playing Style: Right-arm fast bowler, Right-handed batsman
• IPL Debut: 2022 (for Sunrisers Hyderabad)
• IPL Team (2023): Lucknow Super Giants (LSG)
• IPL Team (2024): Mumbai Indians (MI)

Early IPL Career:

• Shepherd entered the IPL in 2022, playing for the Sunrisers Hyderabad. He featured in a limited number of matches that season.
• In the 2023 mega-auction, Lucknow Super Giants acquired him for a reasonable price.

Short Stint with Lucknow Super Giants (2023):

• Unfortunately, Shepherd's time with Lucknow wasn't fruitful. He only played in one match and couldn't score any runs.

Return to Mumbai Indians (2024):

• There seems to be a lack of public information regarding the exact reason for Shepherd's return to Mumbai Indians.
• It's possible he was traded by Lucknow Super Giants in a deal not widely reported, or perhaps Mumbai Indians brought him back as a replacement player due to an injury in their initial squad.

Playing in IPL 2024:

• You've correctly pointed out that Romario Shepherd did play at least one match for Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024, facing off against his former team, the Sunrisers Hyderabad.

Looking Ahead:

• With more information emerging about Shepherd's inclusion in the Mumbai Indians squad, his role in the remaining IPL 2024 season can be better understood.
• He might play a more prominent role depending on team strategy and performance.
