New Delhi, April 16 (UNI) Mumbai Indians have signed 21-year-old Punjab all-rounder Krish Bhagat as a replacement for Atharva Ankolekar, who has been ruled out of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) due to an unspecified injury.

Bhagat, a right-arm pacer who can contribute with the bat in the lower order, has featured in seven first-class and nine List-A matches for Punjab.
