#4 Mumbai Indians - 2014
The first half of the 2014 IPL was scheduled in UAE to avoid the clash with general elections in India. Defending champions Mumbai Indians started off their campaign with a loss against Kolkata. Their campaign went into a major slump as they failed to register a single win in the UAE-leg.
A return to the Wankhede Stadium brought their journey back on track as Mumbai notched up a couple of wins. But defeats to CSK and KKR meant that Mumbai had to win all the remaining games to qualify for the playoffs. The imports in Mike Hussey and Lendl Simmons stood up as they clawed back into the qualification race.
In their last league match, they were given a herculean task of chasing 190 in 14.3 overs. Corey Anderson who was promoted to No: 3 played a stupendous knock and Aditya Tare smashed a six off the final ball to sneak past Rajasthan Royals via net run-rate to qualify for the knockouts.
Although they lost to Chennai in the Eliminator, their resurgence from being winless in the first five matches to qualify was very much appreciated.
