The much-awaited season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is scheduled to commence today. However, one of the most loved franchises, Mumbai Indians (MI) will kickstart their campaign tomorrow as they take on Delhi Capitals (DC) at the Wankhede stadium. Skipper Rohit Sharma would be looking to forget his poor form last season. He has already announced his decision to open for Mumbai this year.

Mumbai Indians have won three titles under Rohit’s captaincy and will be looking forward to maintaining their odd year trophy streak. The Hitman recently became a father during the Australian tour. Both he and his wife Ritika Sajdeh often post pictures with their newborn daughter on social networking sites.

Last years, Mumbai Indians had a forgettable season. They began their campaign with three consecutive losses, all of which came in the last over. The franchise oscillated between brilliance and mediocrity. However, this year, Sharma will be making sure not to repeat any mistakes from the previous season. His form was a huge concern for the team last year.

Mumbai Indian possesses a strong Indian core with the likes of Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah and Krunal Pandya. The young duo of Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan have also displayed great form in the recently concluded Syed Mushtaq Ali tournament. The absence of Lasith Malinga and Adam Milne in the pace department is likely to hurt their prospects. However, with Mitchell McClenaghan in their ranks, they may be able to cover that aspect.
