Mumbai Indians, one of the most successful teams in the IPL’s history, has had a less-than-stellar start to the 2023 season, losing their first two matches despite having an all-star lineup. The team’s lackluster performance has left many fans and experts scratching their heads, including former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh.

Harbhajan Singh, known for his aggressive spin bowling during his playing days, stated that the team’s batting has been a significant disappointment in both games, and their fielding and bowling need improvement.

Mumbai Indians

Despite the setback, Mumbai Indians still have plenty of time to turn their fortunes around in the 2023 IPL season. The team’s star-studded lineup, including Rohit Sharma, Tim David, and Archer, has the potential to take the league by storm. Fans and experts alike will be eagerly waiting to see if the team can bounce back from their shaky start and add another IPL title to their trophy cabinet.
