Mumbai Indians Squad List IPL 2014

Thursday, March 13, 2014

Well, this team doesn’t even need any kind of introduction, the winners of IPL-2013. And off course the team which had the God of cricket, Sachin Tendulkar in their favor until last year when he decided to retire. The team started last year with the previous Australian captain who is one of the most successful captain in the world of cricket, Ricky Ponting but somehow the things dint work in his favor and he himself backed out, and Rohit Sharma took the stand of the team as the captain of Mumbai Indians. Since then they had a blasting last year IPL and we are yet to see what they are up too this time. With the player auctioning system we have seen many changes in their team.

The team retained 5 star players:- 
  • Lasith Malinga      
  • Kieron Pollard      
  • Ambati Rayudu      
  • Rohit Sharma      
  • Harbhajan Singh     
They also made some heavy purchases, to add some more spark to there already start studded team.
They bought four of the biggest players of the T-20 world and did also pay a good amount of money for these deals. All these four players have been performing significantly great as far as IPL is concerned. Here is the list and the price at which they bought the players.
4 Heavy Additions to the already star Studded side:-

  • Micheal Hussey – 500 Lakhs
  • Corey Anderson – 450 Lakhs
  • Zaheer Khan – 260 Lakhs
  • PragyanOjha – 325 Lakhs
Besides these 4 heavy additions, Mumbai Indians was one of the most active side in IPL auctions, did also buy many other players who have performed average in last few IPL seasons. Here is the list of the players and he prices at which they were bought.
  •  CM Gautam – 20 Lakhs
  • Aditya Tare – 20 Lakhs

So after the amount of additions the Mumbai Indians have made, I personally think that Mumbai Indians is one of the most well balanced team in IPL-2014, although we are still looking forward to the performance of the Playing 11 of the team. Micheal Hussey and Corey Anderson are the biggest changes added to the team and audience would definitely be looking forward to their performance.
Our Rating –
·    Balance – 5/5
·    Batting – 4/5
·    Bowling – 5/5
So let’s see whether the current defenders of the cup are able to maintain their first place in the IPL ranking and lift up the IPL-2014 or not.
