Mumbai Indians(MI) now have a core

[Suhaan]

So,it is looking like MI now has a core which they can work around for sometime

Bowling needs a shakeup,otherwise they are shaping up well after 2 years of lull thanks to few transfers and Rohit getting too old

Bumrah was another major contributor, without him they still look toothless in bowling

They have Kishan(inconsistent but dangerous on flat decks),Tilak,Madhwal,Arshad,Wadhera,Tim

,Karthikeya etc

SKY 

Sky is their Engine, absolutely

I'm talking about others who will perhaps stay with them

SKY is also the only Indian player who has maintained a strike rate of 140+ in IPL history over a large sample.

 

Rest like Kohli, Rohit, Dhawan, Rahul have much lower strike rate inspite of better average. Suresh Raina had a good strike rate for his time, i.e, 136.

 

Samson's strike rate is also good although he would want to be a bit more consistent.

Tilak Verma,Nehal Wadhera thesevtwo have been great young Indian batters for them..Dewald Brevis..didnt play acsingle game this season yet..

Rohit Sharma is tge weak link in addition to bowling..

Bumrah should be back next season hopefully Archer too..with Madhwal bowling yorkers..and improving further they will be the side to beat.next season..

Spin department is also not too bad with Chawlas experience and Kumar Kartikeya improving

Don't start already...

 

Still a long way to go

Every season is seen as a build up for the next one, which never comes 

 

At the moment, too dependent on SKY (much like how KKR was on Russell at one point).

Bowling is still pathetic. Malinga/Bumrah irreplacable. remarkable death bowlers.

Bowling is a disaster. Having to chase 200 every game cannot be a repeatable process.

 

The batting is definitely coming along well. With SKY back in form, it is looking pretty ominous with Tilak and Wadhera doing well too. Good thing for MI is that they don't have to rely on foreign batsmen mostly. David is needed to finish some games and Green contributes a bit in top order. But overall, large part of the work has been shared by SKY, Tilak and Wadhera along with occasional contributions from Kishan.
