MI are placed ninth in the points table with 3 losses in 4 matches. The team’s bowlers are struggling with their recent form. At the same time, questions are being raised on the form of some batsmen.

The team had to face defeat by 18 runs in its last match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). Former MI captain and opener Rohit Sharma was injured in this match and retired hurt.
