Mumbai Indians is the most successful team in the history of IPL, Mumbai Indians have won the IPL tournament thrice. Coming into the IPL season 11 as the defending champions they failed to live up to the expectations and ended up in the fifth position. MI has had a solid core around with a squad stronger than the previous season and fans will be hoping for yet another successful season this year.

MI has the quality of T20 batsmen in the top six that will allow them the luxury to play 2 international bowlers, either 2 pacers or a pacer and a spinner, the bowling attack can be more than a handful for any opposition. MI have sufficient backups in all the areas, so injury to one or two-person might still not abate MI.

The Rohit Sharma led franchise has already got Quinton de Kock through trade with RCB. Quinton de Kock gives them the stability at the top and assurance behind the wickets.

Achievements:

  • They have also won the Champions League T20 in 2011 and 2013.
