Mumbai Indians, IPL 2026: Mumbai Indians are almost out of IPL 2026. Even though the team has not been officially eliminated, now it seems impossible for MI to reach the playoffs. The team has played 9 league matches, in which they have won only 2. The team has 4 points. From here Mumbai has to play 5 more matches.
If the team wins all the remaining 5 matches, then they will have only 14 points and it is almost impossible to make it to the playoffs with this many points. Although the entire team is responsible for this poor performance, but we will tell you about 5 such players of the team, who should really be held responsible for the poor performance.
1- Suryakumar Yadav
The first name in the list is that of star batsman Suryakumar Yadav. Surya, famous for his explosive batting, has so far scored only 183 runs in 9 matches this season at an average of 20.33.
