Mumbai Indians IPL 2024: Mumbai Indians team entered IPL 2024 with major changes. Mumbai Indians had made Hardik Pandya the captain of the team in place of Rohit Sharma. But the team has not been able to do anything special under the captaincy of Hardik so far. They are the only team this season which has not won even a single match yet. Mumbai has faced defeat in its first three matches. At the same time, during this period, MI team has also made two shameful records in its name.
Mumbai team collapsed cheaply against Rajasthan

In this match, Mumbai team, batting first, could score only 125 runs at the loss of 9 wickets in 20 overs. This is the smallest score of this season.

277 runs wasted against SRH
The 8th match of IPL 2024 was played between the teams of Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. In this match, Sunrisers Hyderabad, batting first, scored 277 runs for three wickets against Mumbai Indians, which is a new record of the Indian Premier League. Before this, no team had made such a big score in an IPL match. That means Mumbai now has the shameful record of scoring the least runs and giving away the most runs in a match this season.
Mumbai scored a hat-trick of defeats
Mumbai Indians have lost the first 3 matches of a season for the sixth time in their IPL history. Earlier in the years 2008, 2014, 2015, 2018 and 2022, Mumbai Indians had a bad start and lost all the first three matches.
