The most expensive team with the least tactical abilities. They have been fiddling with the coach every season rather than overhauling the squad :wall:

[MUMBAISKIPPER]

Now Mumbai Indians will mess up on the field as did team India.

wow.....apart from Sachin, this team has nothing. WTF is MUkesh doing?

Off topic: MI has the WORST website of all IPL teams and they hardly are bothered to put up the online store for accessories. No updates whatsoever.

[Dark Warrior]

^ i agree... Mukesh uncle ae khaali timepass mate team rakhi chhe. just for showing off in their business circle!!

Mumbai Indians need to Get away 4m Sachin. He is their biggest marketing Asset but need keep him away 4m the team and use him only as a Brand Ambassador. He is too big a player in India. And his aura generally over shadows everything else.

Talking about websites, the other ones aren't that impressive either. Even the official IPL/CL websites look amateur. They should take some inspirations from Nba.com or MLB.com

I sometimes wonder... what happens in a board meeting @MI office....do they just tie each other up and throw dart at random ppl's pic and whoever gets the most poked out of ....is chosen as the new coach every season?

[Shane]

Better than having 4 captains and a Bollywood Monkey as your mascot, isn't it?

[Texy]

that Bollywood Monkey is worshipped more in Bombay than anywhere else MI management is like Arabs... too much money, very little intellect

[Shane]

Yup and does a heck of a job with a Cricket team too. I guess even the Arabs would find it tough to top the Multi-Captaincy Theory or the awesome 3 dead rubber wins from the Bollywood Queens and how can we forget the buy of the season, Mashrafe Mortaza, sneaky pick by the KKR Management. :nice:

[cowboysfan]
