Mumbai Indians struggling to find the right balance. The only constant in the 6 games Mumbai Indians have played so far is the fact that they have failed to find the right balance. Big names like Kieron Pollard, Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, and Ishan Kishan have failed miserably. Dewald Brevis from the last two games, and the evergreen Suryakumar Yadav have been the only positives for a struggling Mumbai Indians outfit so far.
