Hardik, who last rolled his arms over in the Sri Lanka series in July, did not bowl during the UAE leg of the IPL for Mumbai Indians. Hardik also hurt his shoulder while batting against Pakistan and did not take the field in the second passage as he had to go for scans.

Following his bowling stint, Hardik took throwdowns from batting coach Vikram Rathour.
