Mumbai Indians in IPL 2022: Team Profile, Squad, Schedule of MI in Indian Premier League T20 Season 15
The five-time champions would be more than keen to make amends after a disappointing season last term where they failed to qualify for the playoffs. Rohit Sharma's men have made some key additions to their squad at the IPL 2022 Auctions and it would be interesting to see how things pan out for them this season.
After a relatively poor performance that saw them miss out on a playoff spot last season, Mumbai Indians would be more determined than ever to make it to the top and once again reinstate their status as the champion side that they are, in the competition. The five-time IPL champions have made some key retentions--the likes of which included skipper Rohit Sharma, Kieron Pollard, Jasprit Bumrah and Suryakumar Yadav and they got another core member back by roping in Ishan Kishan at the IPL 2022 Auction for a whopping sum of Rs 15.25 crore.

They lost some important players too with Hardik Pandya being the most notable one. The all-rounder would be captaining IPL newbies Gujarat Titans and one can say that Mumbai Indians have almost made up for his loss with a power-hitter in Tim David. Proteas prodigy Dewald Brevis too have joined them. Rohit Sharma's men have also added some firepower to their lower-middle order with the inclusion of Fabian Allen. They also would have Tymal Mills as Jasprit Bumrah's fast bowling partner with Jaydev Unadkat and Basil Thampi in the mix as well. Not to forget, they also have signed Jofra Archer, who would join the team from next season to form a deadly bowling combination with Bumrah.
