Mumbai Indians

Can Mumbai do it again? (Source: BCCI) — Can Mumbai do it again?

After losing five of their first six matches, Mumbai Indians were en route to staging a comeback but have suffered a setback against Rajasthan Royals. Mumbai Indians have registered four wins in last six matches and were looking to repeat their 2014 heroics.

Now with just 10 points from 12 games, Mumbai Indians have to win the next two games and hope that the results of the other teams will go their way. Even at 14 points a-piece, the chances of Mumbai Indians making it to playoffs are high because of their superior run rate.

Mumbai Indians will be automatically out of the tournament if any of the three teams - Kings XI Punjab, Rajasthan Royal, Kolkata Knight Riders reach the 16-point mark as the maximum points MI can grab is 14.

They will be facing Kings XI Punjab and Delhi Daredevils in the last two matches of their season.

Points: 10 from 12 games

Matches left:
