9. Mumbai Indians (MI) – Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan
Rating: 5/10
The Mumbai Indians have been the most consistent performers of the IPL, having played several intriguing seasons and winning a total of five titles. However, in recent years, MI has failed miserably, and the biggest cause has been the repetitive failure of its openers.
The Indian skipper Rohit Sharma has in recent times failed to perform with the willow in hand, and therefore the MI side, who were highly dependent on their captain to score quick runs at the top of the order, experienced a terrible downfall at the top of the order. Ishan Kishan, who was one of the most reliable players in the MI setup, has also failed in recent times, and his dependability is questioned. We’ll have to see his performance in IPL 2023 to judge the potential of this duo.
