# Mumbai Indians Release Trent Boult, Sign Will Jacks for SA20 2026-08-06T14:23:39+00:00 | Sports | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Mumbai Indians have released New Zealand fast bowler Trent Boult from their SA20 squad and signed England all-rounder Will Jacks, ZeeNews India reports. The changes are part of the franchise’s activity in South Africa’s T20 league. ZeeNews India suggests the moves could reflect longer-term planning for the Indian Premier League, but the available information does not confirm that link. The decisions may instead relate to player availability, format requirements or budget considerations. No detailed explanation from Mumbai Indians is cited. The report therefore establishes the SA20 squad changes, but not a wider IPL strategy behind them. ## Coverage - zeenews.india.com Tags: IPL, Mumbai Indians, SA20, Trent Boult, Will Jacks Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/mumbai-indians-release-trent-boult-sign-will-jacks-for-sa20/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
