India limited overs vice-captain Rohit Sharma, all-rounder Hardik Pandya, his brother Krunal and Suryakumar Yadav on Monday joined the Mumbai Indians squad here ahead of the upcoming Indian Premier League, starting on April 9.

The franchise posted a video of its skipper Rohit arriving in Mumbai on its official Twitter handle.
Earlier in the day, Hardik, Krunal and Suryakumar had linked up with the MI squad.
