Mumbai Indians - #BestOfTheBest

[Yash.]

Will be better in the batting with Guptill/Anderson, will cover it up.[DOUBLEPOST=1462722555][/DOUBLEPOST]
No, if Guptill plays no Southee.

Ok but still Parthiv must play instead of Krunal

Krunal

Nah, the guy is good. Better batter that Patel.

 

[rijwan khan]

He will sure give a major boooooost to our highly run conceding bowling

Mi would facing crucial matches against RCB and DD, Malinga could take team into top4?

Teams looks good on paper.What did us last year was poor middle order form and matches shifted from Wankhede to Vizag. concern is injured players are recovering this season - Malinga,Rohit and Mccleneghan.

With auction two days from now, I have prepared a list of players we should be looking for:

Ben Stokes - Perfect replacement, much better with the ball as we left Corey.
Mitch J/Boult/Morkel/Cummins/Tahir - at least one to certainly back up if any injury occur to our main Overseas bowlers in Las and Mc.

Some local players too, will go through the list and pen them down.

Not sure whether we can get Ben Stokes because RCB,KKR and some other franchise will fight for him.
Bring Back Mitch Johnson he be very effective like he was in 2013 with the new ball in wankhede which has a bit of carry in it.
Another one is Jason Roy opening has always been a issue for mi and Roy could be the perfect ploy although Simmons is there but not sure about his form or fitness.

Eventually, the overseas cap is a concern as KP and Malinga are confirmed in the XI, must probably Mc too, we haven't been getting some quality local chaps of late, to distribute the overseas in b all departments.

Yeah thats an issue too.Also MI are slow starters they took time to find the right combinatons.
So strong bench strength will definitely help.

What?!. They have been getting them in large amounts they just don't utilize them well enough.
