It’s not been easy if one is currently part of the Mumbai Indians set up or a hard core MI fan. With four losses in their first four games in a somewhat new format, and where the team is still trying to figure out its best XI, Mumbai Indians really have a massive challenge in front of them.
They have been a bit below par in all three departments, but it’s the batting that has been a bigger let down for the Rohit Sharma-led unit. Because thrice out of the four games so far, MI have batted first, and failed to give their bowlers a total that they can feel comfortable with. Scores of 161 v KKR a few days ago and 151 v RCB on Saturday had already reduced the margins for errors for MI’s bowling unit. Three out of four times, MI have got to a total of 50 or more in the Powerplay. It’s the batting in the middle overs that has really let them down.
