5 Greatest Mumbai Indians players in IPL history

2. Kieron Pollard

Kieron Pollard’s contribution to Mumbai Indians is unparalleled. He has represented the franchise in 211 matches and scored 3915 and also picked up 79 wickets. In IPL, Pollard played 189 games for the team, scoring 3412 at a strike rate of 147.32. He has been an asset to the team over the years and even after his retirement, Pollard is serving MI as its batting coach.

Not just his blistering batting, but his bowling and especially fielding were equally important and vital in MI’s success over the years. The franchise bought Australia international Tim David to replace him and even though he did well but it didn’t take Mumbai much time to realise that it would be extremely difficult for them to replace someone like Pollard. For the same reason, they also got back Hardik Pandya from Gujarat Titans.

Notably, Pollard is one of the rare cricketers to win five titles in IPL history. He also won two Champions Leagues and is regarded as one of the greatest all-rounders to play in the cash-rich league. He joined the team in 2009 and never left until he retired from IPL in 2022.
