Can MI do it again? The great Tennis legend Rafael Nadal is known for his tenacity. When you almost thought that the game was done and dusted, he found ways to dig in and fight till the last inch. Rafa was all about never giving up and staying in the fight. Mumbai Indians are best defined for their comebacks. Known to be slow starters, they somehow - more often than not - manufacture paths of recovery. Quite impressively, the story is no different this season either. Having lost 4 of their first 5 games, MI were in dire straits and looked set to finish in the bottom half of the table. However, as most champion teams do MI once again ignited that much-needed mid-season spark. Post their 5th game, they won 6 out of the next 6 and did that in quite emphatic fashion. With the likes of Rohit, SKY, Tilak, Hardik and Bumrah they will surely start this contest as hot favourites.
