It certainly has been a campaign to forget for the Mumbai Indians (MI) team, who have lost eight consecutive matches and have become the first team to achieve this milestone. After the announcement of their retention picks, things were going all right, but they had a bad outing in the IPL 2022 mega auction, which was an initial point of trigger for the ongoing slide.

In this season, the failure of the openers, Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan has kept them at bay for getting a good start in the powerplay overs. Although the middle order has done well, with the likes of Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma producing impressive performances. But, the lack of enough wicket-taking options and Bumrah’s average performance have not helped their cause as well.

Things that changed since Mumbai Indians last won a game in IPL

In T20 World Cup 2021 Super 12 stage, the Australian team secured four victories in five league matches and sealed their place for the next stage. In the semi-finals, they faced Pakistan and chased down the target of 177 runs in a thrilling fashion. The wicket-keeper Matthew Wade finished the chase by hitting three sixes of Shaheen Afridi’s over.

In the finals, Australia was up against the challenge of the New Zealand team. After being average with the ball, they again were successful to chase 173, with Mitchell Marsh and David Warner scoring half-centuries. The opener Warner was named as “Player of the tournament” with 289 runs in seven matches.

This was Australia’s maiden T20 World Cup win in international cricket. They have won the ODI World cup for a record number of five times in 1987, 1999, 2003, 2007, and 2015.
