3. Mumbai Indians 

Mumbai Indians were far from their best in the 15th edition of the lucrative T20 tournament and ended the league stage as the wooden-spoon holders with just four wins under their belt. One of the reasons for a dismal season was the poor showing of the multi-faceted cricketers.

MI signed Daniel Sams at the 2022 mega auction to contribute in both departments. Sams did a decent job on the bowling front, picking 13 scalps in 11 games at an economy of 8.81, however, he was awful with the bat, scoring a mere 38 runs at a strike rate of 105.56. Kieron Pollard’s dwindling returns did not help either as the legendary cricketer could only score 144 runs in 11 games at a poor strike rate of 107.46 and took four wickets for the side.

Ahead of the IPL 2023 auction, Mumbai have moved past Sams while Pollard has hung his boots from the cash-rich league. With the exit of the overseas duo, MI would need to fill the all-rounder void in the team and the five-time IPL champions could be inclined towards adding Holder, who has been a match-winner in the shortest format with both bat and ball.
