Mumbai Indians slumped to yet another loss as Kolkata Knight Riders defeated them by 52 runs in the Indian Premier League 2022 clash at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy, Mumbai on Monday. MI captain Rohit Sharma asked KKR to bat first. Venkatesh Iyer (43) and Nitish Rana (43) notched up brilliant individual knocks to guide KKR to 165/9 with Jasprit Bumrah starring with the ball. In return, the batter for MI, put on a poor show with only Ishan Kishan (51) putting up a valiant effort in the chase. KKR fast bowler Pat Cummins was on top of his bowling as he picked up three wickets.
Mumbai Indians have looked like a pale shadow of themselves in IPL 2022. The Rohit Sharma-led side created an unwanted record of eight consecutive losses on the trot before registering their first win in the lucrative tournament this season. But their slump in form makes perfect sense as the franchise is still looking to compile their best XI from the new look squad which was formed at the IPL mega auction.
Mumbai Indians have shown that they have an array of talents including the likes of Dewald Brevis, Tilak Verma, Jofra Archer, new joinee Tristan Stubbs and batting maverick Tim David in their line-up who can prove to be a handful in the upcoming season. Their middle-order which used to have Hardik Pandya in the line-up might have looked shaky with Kieron Pollard not holding the fort after his release but David has shown that he can be relied on with the bat.
