The five-time IPL champions are having a disastrous time on the field in the 2022 edition of the IPL.

Mumbai Indians (MI) are struggling in this edition of the cash-rich league, losing eight matches on the trot. They&#8217;ve created an unwanted record, becoming the first team in IPL to face defeats in eight consecutive league matches. Nothing is going their way as they have abysmal run match after match.

For Mumbai Indians, Suryakumar Yadav has been the only batsman doing the bulk of the scoring. Barring him, no one has been consistent with the bat which is one of the primary reasons for MI struggling to win this season. Their bowling has been well under par as well with their star bowler Jasprit Bumrah also not quite at his best. The five-time champions are all but out of the tournament and just need a win to keep their campaign going. The MI squad might look for some alternatives to strengthen and balance their playing XI. Here&#8217;s the list of-

3 benched MI players who deserve a chance in the playing XI

The Singaporean all-rounder Tim David is known for his hard-hitting abilities. He has, from time to time, proved that he is a valuable asset to any side he&#8217;s playing for. However, he had a tough time in the first two matches against the Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals.

The middle-order batter has a decent record playing for the Singapore national team, playing many crucial knocks for his country. He also has a decent record in his short domestic T20 career with nine half-centuries to his name. He&#8217;s also capable of picking wickets with his right-arm off-break bowling. The Singaporean all-rounder also has vast experience, playing for various T20 teams in numerous leagues all around the world.

Tim David was bought by the five-time champions at a whopping price of INR 8.25 crores. He deserves another chance in the playing XI as only two matches are not enough to judge the capabilities of a player.  He has the potential to turn the tables of any match. His inclusion in the squad will strengthen MI&#8217;s middle-order as the other batters are failing to provide the support needed.

Mumbai Indians have a young and capable Indian bowler in their ranks. Mayank Markande is a talented bowler capable of taking wickets at crucial junctures. He has performed reasonably well in the past. However, he has not been given a chance in playing XI so far in the tournament.

He had a decent record in the 2018 edition of the Indian Premier League, picking up 15 wickets in that edition at an economy rate of 8.36 runs per over. He played for Mumbai Indians in that edition as well and bowled quite well for the team. However, he has not been given enough chance by his previous team(Rajasthan Royals) in the following two editions. This has restricted him from proving his metal in the cash-rich league

He was bought again by the Mumbai Indians in the 2022 mega auction for INR 65 lacs. He is a talented Indian bowler who is capable of taking crucial wickets with his leg-break bowling. He should be given a chance as MI needs to shuffle their bowling line-up which is struggling in the tournament so far. His inclusion in the squad can prove to be fruitful as he is capable of providing the team with vital breakthroughs.

Another capable and young Indian cricketer, Aryan Juyal, has been benched by the Mumbai Indians. Aryan Juyal has proved himself to be a capable batter, playing splendidly well in the Under-19 category for Uttar Pradesh and List A. However, he hasn&#8217;t played a single match and has yet to make his debut in the Indian Premier League so far.

The wicket-keeper batsman has scored 371 runs at a decent average of 33.72 in first-class cricket and 532 runs in List A matches with a century and three half-centuries in each category. He is a capable batter who can score crucial runs in the middle order which is the need of the hour for the five-time IPL champions.

He was bought by the Mumbai Indians for INR 20 lacs. However, he has not been given a chance in playing XI so far in the tournament. The Mumbai Indians should go for him as an alternative as he can be useful to their struggling middle-order. His inclusion in the side can prove to be worthwhile as he is capable enough and can provide strength to their middle order.
