Strong batting, good power hitter and strong fast bowling attack make him a formidable contender for the title of five-time champion Mumbai in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL). The weakest part of Mumbai is its spin section, which is causing trouble in the title hat-trick. Rohit Sharma’s Mumbai Indians will play their first match against Royal Challengers Bangalore in Chennai on April 9.
Mumbai Indians, after winning the title in 2019, won the tournament in 2020 after playing in the UAE due to the Kovid-19 epidemic. Mumbai has kept its key players in the team for the last several years and this is the main reason for its dominance. Batting are Mumbai’s strongest team, including skipper Rohit Sharma and South Africa’s Quinton Diako. If necessary, Australia’s Chris Lynn will also be ready to take responsibility.
IPL 2021: Delhi Capitals new captain, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant will be delighted with Ricky Potting’s statement
Suryakumar Yadav and Ishaan Kishan are constantly improving their game. The two recently made their international debut in India. The presence of the Pandya brothers all-rounder Hardik and Krunal and Kieran Pollard of the West Indies make their middle order look very strong. In the bowling department, he has Jasprit Bumrah, India’s best fast bowler. At the end of last season, New Zealand’s Trent Boult proved his ability to take wickets at powerplay. He also owns Australia’s Nathan Coulter Nile, which makes Mumbai’s fast bowling attack look dangerous.
The weakest part of Mumbai is its spin division, which proves to be very effective on the pitch of Chennai’s Chepauk Stadium. Mumbai do not have a spinner to take a wicket and they can hide this weakness. Left-arm spinner Krunal Pandya can control the run but he is not adept at taking wickets. In such a situation, the responsibility of the spin department falls on the shoulders of young Rahul Chahar, who is considered a gift from the IPL. Off-spinner Jayant Yadav has only played two matches in the last season and it remains to be seen how many matches he will get this time. Mumbai veteran Piyush Chawla has been added to the squad but in the presence of Chahar and Krunal, they may have to opt out for most matches.
Rishabh Pant became captain of Delhi Capitals, what did his new role say
Chawla has taken 156 wickets in the IPL and is the third highest wicket taker in the tournament. Mumbai has big hitters in the middle order and is a strong team. By chasing targets, especially in Chennai and Bengaluru, they gain much. Prominent among them were the Pollard and Pandya brothers. Pollard can support bowling and play a fifth or sixth bowler.
Mumbai’s team looks like this:
Rohit Sharma (captain), Adam Milne, Aditya Star, Anmolpreet Singh, Suchit Roy, Arjun Tendulkar, Chris Lynn, Dhawal Kulkarni, Hardik Pandya, Ishaan Kishan (wicketkeeper), James Neesham, Jaspreet Bumrah, Jayant Yadav , Marco Jansen, Mohsin Khan, Nathan Coulter Nile, Piyush Chawla, Quinton Dickock (wicketkeeper), Rahul Chahar, Saurabh Tiwari, Suryakumar Yadav, Trent Boult, Yudhvir Singh. Head Coach: Mahela Jayawardene.
Raina predicted this when Punt was given the leadership of the Delhi Capitals.
