Mumbai Indians must return to form
It has been two seasons since MI reached the playoffs of the IPL. For a team that is as successful as Mumbai, this is a record that they would want to arrest at the earliest. The focus will be on that in the upcoming edition.
The management will hope that Jasprit Bumrah and Jofra Archer would be fit for the tournament. This would go a long way in helping the franchise put up a better show. Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan must become more consistent and this is one more subplot that fans would be curious about. Cameron Green’s form will also affect the prospects of MI.
